Instant Pot?



Recommended Posts

I've heard good things about the Instant Pot and am thinking of getting one. There are just 2 of us at home. Should I get the 6 quart or 3 quart? If we want to cook a roast is the bigger size better? Any tips or advice?

Thanks!

I just unboxed my 6qt instant pot tonight. Household of 3. Haven’t used it yet but it looks pretty! :)

Get the bigger one! We have the smaller one and unfortunately found out it can’t fit a whole chicken.

Also- I love ours! We use it a few times a week.

Santa 🎅since I am rapidly losing down my Pot Gut may I have an🎁 Instapot,for🎄 Christmas. Yes Santa there may be only 2 in our Family but my Bari- Friends say the 6 quart size is much better. I missed the Black Friday sales so I'm counting on you to make every Thing right. Your Hopeful Friend Frustr8😛

Family of 4. We got the 6qt and it was perfect! It is a lifesaver for quick yet quality meals for full-time busy families. My husband and I both work full time and I go to college full time and our children are ages 10 and 7, both boys. So I have plenty of appetites to fill and the instant pot makes me like the perfect 1960s mom with a roast hot on the table by dinner time when she got off work at 3 in the afternoon.

Is this like a pressure cooker? I have had one of those for years (still in the box - never used it - lol). You all have made me want this but if I buy one more gadget I don’t use I think my husband might divorce me!! 😁

For those not willing to wait for Santa, Kohl's has a code for 25% off plus you get Kohl's cash to use later. The code is HOLIDAY25. I just ordered an air fryer oven and got a great price on it. Now I have to return the one I bought from Bed, Bath and Beyond on Monday. I already have a 6 qt Instant Pot and love it!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
