ok-I'm still back in 1971 thinking "Instant Pot".

I thought it was something smokable, like a Chia Pet.

Give me some time...this too shall pass.

@maestra  You smoked your Chia Pet?

How does one do that?  You clip the greenery and roll your own with Zig Zag papers?

@Cakers3...not for many, many decades, but no Chia pet.

I went to college in that time period and you can onlyt imagine, even for an innocent like I was.

I don't really get this trend of needing a special type pot/pan for every purpose, but then I have more pans than I need anyway and I've known how to cook since I was a small child.

I think stuff like this sells a lot, though, so more power to them.

If I was going to use a pressure cooker again (I have a couple somewhere but haven't used them for over 10 years), I would just purchase a good brand pressure cooker.

For everything else, any one of the normal pots or pans everybody has in their kitchen already will do the job perfectly.

@maestra  Heh.  As long as you didn't inhale it's all good.  ROTFL!

  But what is a smokable Chia Pet?

Our daughter broke in her new Instant pot last night.  She made ribs with a brown sugar BBQ sauce and they were the best ribs I’ve had.

Yum!  Sounds good.   I kind of miss stuff like ribs, as they tend to freak out my esophagus condition and then it gets bad.  Please have one (or two!) for me.

My wish list for the kitchen (besides a new one haha)

Instant Pot 6qt.

Air Fryer

VitaMix

My kitchen is totally bare bones.  I am the only person I know who doesn't even have a microwave (and I've never even wanted one of those!)

How I manage to eat is a mystery!

---

I don't have a microwave either.  I don't like them.  LOL

I bought the Instant Pot last year.  I use it a lot.  I hate countertop cluttering appliances, but I knew I would get a lot of use out of it.

Instant Pot is a good brand of pressure cooker 

I have been using it for soup, boiled egg, sauce and will do my mashed potatoes this week 

I don't use the LeCreuset or other stuff much anymore
