You can make the BEST chicken stock in less than an hour. It's so much better than the ones you get simmering on the stove or in the crockpot. I've also found that it makes really good risotto. I recommend getting the America's Test Kitchen pressure cooker cookbook. I made probably the best pot roast I have ever had using their recipe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-a-pressure-cooker#post-1709499 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 11:38:58 +0000 2PeasinaPod 1709499@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use it for roasts that I forgot to start in the morning in a crock pot. I've made beef and pork roasts in them...really cuts the time down quite a bit and you still get a really tender roast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-a-pressure-cooker#post-1709488 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 11:37:38 +0000 Boogs 1709488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't, but I know some people use it for canning things also. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-a-pressure-cooker#post-1709427 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 11:20:53 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1709427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@matador84: Sorry, not sure! I bought it on Amazon and found one that had a good price and good reviews. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-a-pressure-cooker#post-1709404 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 11:16:53 +0000 matador84 1709404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.Someone: what type do you have? I was just gifted a cuisinart </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-a-pressure-cooker#post-1709393 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 11:13:39 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1709393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have one, but I'm afraid of explosions. DH uses it though. He makes things that normally take a long time to cook, like tougher cuts of meat. I think it once used it for brown rice since he forgot to start it earlier. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-a-pressure-cooker#post-1709357 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 11:02:58 +0000 matador84 1709357@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What do you cook in it? </p>
