If you got a model that allows you to set the temp and hold it, you can do Sous Vide in it. I do all my meat Sous Vide now, and never have anything turn out dry. Edge to edge medium-rare steaks are amazing. Chicken breasts come out super juicy and tender and the spices are absorbed right into it.

I also picked up a stacked steamer for it for vegetables. Sweet potatoes have an amazing color when you run them through pressure cooking in instant pot.

Forgot all about that. Crack chicken is amazing, as is the pulled pork you can do in it.

I got one for my wife two Christmases ago. She uses it for just about everything. I know that it does hard boiled eggs perfectly, and they peal really easy too.

Collect dust.

The yogurt is pretty decent, I pressure cook chick peas for hummus (WAY better than canned) and I did a lot of split pea soup last winter.

My “pork rillettes” still do better in the crockpot overnight than in the pressure cooker.

You can download the app also that will tell you what temp, and how long to get the desired “done-ness” of the meat.

If your IP holds a temp you can treat it like a crockpot.

Never heard of Crack Chicken, but it sounds great. How does one serve this? Seems like it should go over rice or noodles....

Likewise.

This is just a time and electricity-enabled version.

I was going to return it because it is impossible to properly clean the lid.

I made two dinner dishes in it and they were both very tough and overdone.
In addition you can’t get the food smell out if the lid.

But then I discovered it is the only way to make hard boiled eggs medium- to medium rare with no green on the outside of the yolk and shells that fall off in practically one piece.

For this reason the instant pot is indispensable. But I would never cook anything else in it.
