Is the instant pot the air fryer? They do seem tempting.
I use my crockpot every week. Almost everything turns out pretty good. Last week it was a nice beef stew in red wine. Right now I have yesterday night’s roasted chicken carcass in it, with filtered water and a big splash of apple cider vinegar, in order to get the most minerals and gelatin from the bones. It’s been in there 24 hours, and the next 24 will be with sliced leeks and a bit more vinegar. Then I cool it and freeze it in red solo style cups, slice the cups once frozen and save the frozen 1.5 c portions in freezer bags. Best bone broth ever. Practically free.
No, the Instant Pot is a combination slow cooker/pressure cooker. Here’s a good little intro to it:
