My bf and I just got a shiny new InstantPot pressure cooker and we are in LOVE.

He's currently researching new recipes and stuff to make in one .. it's a slow cooker, rice cooker, pressure cooker and more all in one haha. We made a pot roast in it yesterday and it was amazinggg.


Do you guys have any fave recipes to make in these?

I've never owned one before so I have no recipes, unfortunately. But I've always wanted a rice cooker.

@kira: I've wanted a rice cooker for years too, I was SO PSYCHED to see this had a setting for it!

that thing sounds lovely.
i've always wanted a little crock pot for myself. perhaps i should look into a pressure cooker instead.

We have one as well!
I recommend getting a cookbook from the library about it. That’s what we did.

@kira: wait like cooking yourself!? PLS NO THAT SOUNDS VERY UNPLEASANT

@peachy: ha, hopefully we'll use it for more but we'll see!

@tuijp: that was one of my concerns too but they have a lot of safety things built in - if the pressure ever gets too high it'll just blow steam from one of the vents first!

@glume: will do! i should have an instant pot megathread or something later on haha

@vermii: yeah! it replaces a slow cooker and can even "slow cook" stuff in 4x speed. it's amazing.

@totalanimefan: ooh that's a good idea. we've just been browsing the internet but a physical book is probably a good idea too

DID YOU KNOW YOU CAN MAKE HAMBURGER HELPER IN ONE IN ONLY FIVE MINUTES?!

Seriously look into making mac and cheese in it. It's so cheesy and rich if you do that.

Also try stuffed cabbage rolls!

@octology: ooh! i am definitely down to try the mac n' cheese, i've been craving it for ages tbh. we'll also probz check out the cabbage rolls at some point! (next weekend we are making sushi with Instant Pot rice haha so it's kind of on-theme!)

(also yes we are planning meals that far in advance because sushi is an Endeavor, plus it's his birthday!)

here's what we made today: BBQ chicken sliders. we "slow cooked" it in 30 minutes. *w*

@kozi: it's not scary at all! i was a little nervous at first but the steam release is built to let steam out if it ever gets TOO pressurized. the only scary thing is that you can burn yourself on the steam so you gotta be really careful when you do release it but so far it's been good to us. :D
