I have always loved my crock pot and have even used it as a sous -vide cooker with the help of a temperature controller. However I find I am using my Instant Pot pressure cooker and air fryer more these days. With colder weather there is still nothing like my crock pot to make comfort foods like soups and super tender beef pot roast. Interesting that my microwave, which I once thought was indispensable, and my kitchen range are now my least used kitchen appliances.
Pressure cookers are crock pots on steroids, do abut the same thing in half the time or less. I am new to the air fryer and hope to experiment this winter when I have the time.
My son fixed ribs and kraut and potatoes in a Instant Pot Pressure cooker.....best I’ve ever had!
Our Instant Pot (IP) sent the old crock pot into basement storage. The IP is so much faster and versatile that I doubt the crock pot will ever be used again by us.
