Re: Instant Pot for Newbies
I use it a lot to prep for the freezer. Like cooking 4 pounds of hamburger at once or shredding chicken. i can just put it in and walk away and do something else. I use it a lot for rice (daily) and potatoes. Stew is a good one here. I used to always end up with scorched stew on the stove. I can cook "fried" rice with chicken at the same time which I do a lot when i need a quick meal. Steamed bao is another hit here.
IMO most of the time savings is exaggerated. The benefit to me is that after I put the ingredients in, I'm done, I can go do something else. I could cook the same thing on the stove but have to sit and stir and pay attention to it.
What size roast did you have that it didn't fit? I always cut mine for the IP but I still prefer the oven.
