Talk, to, me about Insta pots, please.

[Steve H]

You nailed it, Steve, Mom said you're NOT taking my pressure cooker.
I asked her when was the last time she used it, her response was "shut up" I left it at that.

Smart man!!

I want one, but don't know what options I need.
I'll mainly use it for meat, soups and stews, and maybe sauces, and preserves, I think, another thing in what size? Likewise, I like to cook pretty big for freezing meal preps, but I don't need massive, due to storage space being tight.

Which brand seem to be best? I'll wait for holiday sales before buying, unless you know of a good deal now.

@chopsaw

Or anyone else that uses them.

Thanks a bunch.

I have an Instant Pot 6qt and love it. Makes great Chili, roast, Gumbo, All kinds of soups. I have a 3 ring binder full of recipes I gleaned off Pintrest. Tons of good recipes to learn.

Get INSTA POT. Buy a NEW one . They are cheap, $80 or less.
I would look @ Yogurt, Canning, Sous Vide now is available. That would be nice!
Size 6 Qt seems to be the norm.
4Qt I would think is just too small.
Its a good size to make decent amount of food.
I put a frozen 6 lb Turkey Breast in my 6 qt.
To give you an idea of capacity.
If you get a larger size? Its takes more electric and food to make it be efficient.
Target had a sale that included the glass lid and extra Silicone ring ?
Believe it was under $100 ?
I am very happy with mine its a few yrs old
