As many have said, this forum costs members money! I have an Instant Pot arriving tomorrow, and need some pointers. Mushroom risotto and chili are at the top of my lists to try. What are some good recipes or recipe sites? I found a good looking mushroom risotto on 'Amy + Jacky' - anyone tried it? I am still researching chili recipes. And maybe baked beans. And maybe - well, I am looking forward to testing out lots of things.

For Christmas 2017, I did a 12# brisket in the LBGE, Asparagus in the Anova Sous Vide, and the mushroom risotto in the Instant Pot. They all came out at the same time and was quite the feast. (And feat for me, I might add!) (sorry no pics - as it was Christmas after all and I was a tad busy...)
But my executive chef BIL had made a traditional risotto for Thanksgiving and my MIL was so impressed with him standing there all that time stirring and stirring... with the IP, you do some sauteeing and mixing early on, but then let it go do it's thing while you slice the beef...
Enjoy! And by far, it makes the - best - hard boiled - eggs -ever.
Also give a search for Mississippi Pot Roast - that turned out great as well!

Instant Pot Ultra 6 Qt
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06Y1MP2PY/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_26?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DERThanks for the link. I really want the 8 qt. Have a 6 qy crock pot and its too small for some things.
But that is a good price for the 6.

But I understand. If I would have only used this logic when I purchased grills.lol
I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!
…Unknown
Michael2 lbs raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
12 oz Crabmeat
10 oz tuna
1 can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can stewed tomatoes, undrained (14.5 oz)
1 can tomato sauce (8 oz)
1 small sweet red pepper, finely chopped
1 small onion
1/2 cup beef broth
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
2 tbsp. chili powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
Also, with regard to recipes, don't forget the humble boiled egg. You'll never cook them any other way again. Great control, and the shells peel very easily. Have fun. It's a cool tool.
Just 2 of us in the house. But kids and grand kids are close. I'm basing the 8 qt on my current crock pot (6 qt). I can fit 7lbs of pork butt in it but no more. I like to do Kalua Pig - recipe from family in Oahu, and often have to do 2 cooks to get it all done.
I'm sure the 6 would work for the majority of the cooks but when I want to do more the 8 would be nice.
But you guys got me thinking,,,,,

3 ingredients:
Pork roast - shoulder or rump
1 tablespoon of Hawaiian Sea Salt (can use Kosher too) for every 2 lbs of pork (adjust to personal taste. I usually subtract 1/2 tablespoon no matter the weight of the roast per cousins recipe)
1 tablespoon of Liquid Smoke for every 2 lbs of pork
I have added whole cloves of garlic too.
Crock pot on low for 8-12 hours depending on size. a 7lb usually takes me 8-10.
Pull the meat from the pot, Separate the fat, drain the juice. Pour juice into a fat separator and pour the good juices back on the meat to moisten.
Serve over rice with a spritz of hot sauce.

Same here. I bought the XL. Couple times a year I need the 8 qt for trout opener group or camping. Or big batch of chili or stew and Ill freeze 1/2.
