Instant Pot DUO60 6 Qt 7-in-1 Multi-Use Programmable Pressure Cooker

Used this over Labor Day weekend to make pulled pork, came out AMAZING. Only took 50 minutes to cook, compared to 8 hours in my slow cooker. Really impressed by how easy it is to use, and to clean. I assumed the steel pot would be more difficult to clean, but it was quite easy. Another great thing, as i was looking up recipes, most of the videos online use an Instant Pot pressure cooker. This made it very easy to follow along. Very happy with this, I would definitely recommend.

Received my Instant Pot IP-DUO60 Stainless Steel 6-Quart 7-in-1 Multi-Functional Pressure Cooker and right away started preparing it to use! The Instant Pot is a seven-in-one programmable cooker. You can combine the options of a pressure cooker, rice cooker, steamer, slow cooker, saute/browning, and warmer. With an easy press of a button, you can cook your favorite dishes within a fraction of the time compared to the conventional method of cooking. The lid will conveniently rest on either the left or the right pot handle and is easy to insert and remove. The inner pot is stainless steel and very durable. There is no health concerns of non-stick coating material. You can cook a complete meal in a fraction of the time it would normally take. I chose the larger pot. The bowl that goes inside the pot is large and very easy to clean. Not heavy like crock pots. It is removable, looks like a mixing bowl! My first test was to cook some frozen baby lima beans. Put the frozen beans in the pot, added water to cover, set for BEANS, then for 5 minutes (you may have to test the time for whatever you cook, although a recipe book is included to advise on cooking times of most items) then choose PRESSURE cook. The unit preheats. In my case it took maybe 5 minutes to preheat. It will notify you when it starts the cooking process and does a timer countdown. Once finished, it goes to OFF mode and keeps the food warm until you unplug on push CANCEL. Warms food up to 10hours. Then I tried some frozen black-eyed peas that turned out perfect!! One thing I was amazed at and loved, is at how very QUIET the cooker is. Most pressure cookers make a lot of noise. Not this one. I was wondering if it was even cooking! The beans turned out perfect!! Also, with this pot you are not scared of using the pressure cooking part as some pressure cookers. I don't usually leave item's like this out on the counter, but this pot is so nice looking, I have it out on my counter. I plan to use it often!!
