Is an Instant Pot too good to be true?

No chance. I have found that I can use the kit to make chili or beef stew and then portion out the results into containers, freeze each container then place the frozen results in vacuum packed bags.

The number of uses for the device are so well documented on the internet and YouTube.

Careful not to fall down the YouTube Instant Pot rabbit hole.

You can find tips and recipes in a matter of seconds and you off and running.

What else should I get to max out utility of the Instant Pot?

I would suggest a base setup as follows:

  • Vegetable steamer
  • 7 inch glass, metal or silicone cake pans
  • Egg stands that holds about 7 eggs

Even consider the Instant Pot Air Fryer Lid 6 in 1 that is now available.

Okay where can I get a Instant Pot?
