Awesome 8 qt instapot all digital settings will be on sale tomorrow 12/16 at Sams Club for $69.00. Amazing price!

Don't see an InstantPot on Sam's.com.
I did see a off brand for $89.
I saw this brand in person at Kohl's.
May want to check independent reviews.

Me neither. I see a Tristar brand for $89. But I'm not familiar with that brand.

This could be an idea for Christmas gifts in 2018. Making a list. Love my crock pot and how it smells up the house.

Does the Instant Pot have the same kind of affect?

I gave up pot of the other kind in 5th grade. Was coughing way too much in Elementary School. Did get high from MJ fumes at various concerts which I doubt happens here in the Villages. Cannot see people inhaling at an Amy Grant outdoor concert at the Polo Fields.

If you are considering the purchase of an electric pressure cooker, I would strongly suggest the Instant Pot or Fagor, as they have a stainless steel interior cooking pot.... the others (aka cheaper) are Teflon coated, and are subject to scratching and peeling.

I was at the pool the other day..............Saw my Instant Pot.


barfbarf

:highfive: Been there....done that! Mine wasn't instant. Took 24 years of retirement:mmmm:.

I got mine from Amazon. Free shipping with Prime membership

Had some at Sam’s Club yesterday. Not too many left it appeared.

This thread is interesting to me and I was beginning to feel a sense of urgency. Then I started having flashbacks of a long ago, rather exhausting pursuit of a Cabbage Patch doll.

So I took a deep breath and ordered an Instant Pot cookbook for 12 bucks on Amazon.

Wrapping a cookbook will be easy. I will include a note to say we can go shopping after Christmas — if this thing looks like something that actually will be used.

One question: Can anyone tell me if this newfangled pot would be welcomed by someone who loves kitchen stuff but is perfectly comfortable and successful using an old-fashioned pressure cooker?

I asked the same question..........assuming the user doesn't mind a little technology and a few buttons. Takes a little getting use to, but then :MOJE_whot:

This is more than a pressure cooker. It is also a slow cooker. You can also use it as a sous vide if you get the Ultra, you can saute in it and then go directly to cooking in the same pot. You can make yogurt and breakfasts and desserts. I am making chicken marsala in mine tonight and doing the browning of the chicken in the pot before I pressure cook it. Separately making a pasta with pine nuts, feta cheese and mint, but I could make pasta in the cooker as well, just chose not too.

Making hard boiled eggs take 7 minutes, but they peel So Very EASILY! !!! Probably has something to do with the pressure/hard shell.

Takes about 90 minutes under pressure to make my own beef stock from all the steak bones that I collect in the freezer, and use that for homemade French onion soup. Chicken stock is about the same time too.

I've made several different cheesecakes and even yogurt... rice is a breeze - no watching or have it boiling over.

I was so happy with my 6qt, I got my daughter one last Christmas, and I bought myself an 8 qt on Primeday when it was on sale.

Just ordered the 8 quart with blue tooth from Best Buy.
On sale for $99.
Came with a free speaker.

:confused:

I use it everyday!

I think that promotion was the 6-quart, wasn’t it?

Yes, I have one and love it! Use it several times a week.

Quisinart Electric Pressure Cooker
 

I own this pot and it is great! Cook ribs and meat just falls off the bone. Makes wonderful beef stew.

Love it so much that I have one in our PA home & in the villages ... couldn’t do without it!!! There is a learning curve & always experimenting... good investment

:pray: was hoping for the same! LOL

I love it when my Instant Pot hisses at me and I can hear it in the next room. Very convenient.:p

I how I can tell the difference between my Instant Pot and my Bride.

I thought it was Alexa at first.

Instant boiling Pot
 

Yes: I use my "instant boil tea pot" daily.
I had an "instant boil" regular pot,and never used it.
It supposedly helped avoid "curdling" when making
cream sauces or gravy. But, I just make those in
my pots!

Hmm... no can PM you, dewilson, but here's one more Instant Pot idea: Breakfast from Instant Pot for Beginners: 20 Essential Recipes Gallery - The Daily Meal

I hope you and Mrs. Wilson are enjoying the wee... I mean pot!:evil6:

Well, I have a 6 qt Instant Pot Duo plus and have made a couple of meals with it. Wednesday, my 3 qt one will arrive from Amazon...;)

Ribs....want to do that....videos I’ve watched show ribs being cooked in the IP and then basted with BBQ sauce and broiled for a little bit. Right? Any tips or suggestions?

Bought the smaller one for smaller preps....rice, hard boiled eggs, beans, chickpeas, etc.

Anyone made a cheesecake with their I P? Good?

I'm getting very envious of all you people with the smaller Instant Pot. Can I cram one more small appliance into my already overpacked kitchen? I think so! Maybe it can sit in my turkey roasting pan.:laugh:

For the ribs... would it work to finish them on the grill instead of under the broiler? Less mess in the oven.

That’s a good idea! I do have a larger toaster oven with broiling so I thought I’d give that a try instead of the oven, but the grill is better. Thanks.....and today, I’ve got to move stuff around to fit yet one more item in my kitchen....lolol.

That's a great deal. I just got the 6 quart duo for more $$.

dew where are you???

Based on all of your input, I ordered a 6 qt. Instant Pot Ultra but it is on backorder. Should get the first of February. Hope the thread continues with use suggestions.

I'm back!!.

Alive and well.

THANK YOU ALL.........for the Instant Pot information.

I did get a pot for my Bride.

I ended up getting the largest one............because size does matter.

The food seems healthier.

Oh my. Size... Maybe I should get a bigger one?

Do share what has been made recently.

Chicken............a whole frigg'n chicken. Comes out juicy. Have not played too much with sauces yet........but I plan on getting naked and crazy with chicken in 2018.

Poached Eggs............Kind'a like these with a piece of toast in a glass. Mix it up with a fork. My grandmother made these for me when I was 10.

Beef...........not the expense cut (I'm cheap). Slow cooking gives old Southern Cows new life.

:loco:

Ours was on the recall list due to melting exposing bare wires.

Parental units were making ribs and it melted. At least is was on large wood cutting board.

Hmm... will have to check hat out, Asian three. I've gotten no recall notice. I bought mine from England. Maybe they're not so good at issuing recalls?

Glad to see dewilson back
