Monello made Indian Butter Chicken the other day, and I do HBEs regularly. I did ribs a few weeks ago, then charred them on the grill - OMG!

It's a pretty amazing contraption. I've used it to make whole chicken the way I used to do it with a slow cooker. The pressure can help speed up the process if you are in a pinch for time.

So, Instant Pot is a brand name, and the best known. Others have come after them, especially the slow cooker folks, who have seen sales tumble. Evidently Crock Pots pressure cooker is a pretty solid effort, from the last head to head I've seen. Unless you are cooking for a family of four, big eaters odds are pretty good a six quart will do you fine.

Thats how them b*tch's R
We are a family of four. I try not to have too many leftovers though. One kid refuses to eat them, the other only eats certain things leftover, I'm somewhere in the middle and hubby will eat it all, lol.

I have use a small (probably smallest one) generic one. It actually does a great job on things like frozen onion rings and fries.
It is just a mini convection oven, nothing special about it.
Same. Thought it worked great for fries and homemade chicken tenders.
Now I want an instant pot!
Not to get off topic again, but does anyone have or have tried a sous vide cooker? Seems like an awesome way to cook steaks and other red meat .
I went overboard and got the Ultra 10 function. It has a bunch of presets that I don't care about because you can program it manually to pressure, slow cook, saute, etc, with low/med/high or set your own temp, and how many minutes.
6 qts is right for us. If we were a family of four, it would still be right; any more humans and we'd need a bigger pot.
I got my daughter a sous vide for Christmas and she uses it frequently. But she and the boyfriend are foodie cooking people who dream of having a professional kitchen set-up.

Pic is mine from 20 minutes ago. You can pop it under the broiler, or maybe use a fancy chef blowtorch to brown the cheese. WE didnt bother. You know how lasagna is always better the second day after the flavors have time to get all together? Yeah, its like that right from the start.

That looks AMAZING!!!
And it was. That's a six inch springfrom pan. Made enough that the wife and I each had a good serving for dinner, with enough left over for lunch for each of us today.

First time I ever made a cheesecake that wasnt Jello InstantThe only things I might do different is to actually heat the graham cracker crust instead of refrigerate it, and place it on a convex surface when covered in the fridge so condensation from the lid rolls down and away. But even at that, it was some of the best cheesecake I've ever had.
It looks soo delicious!!
