Damn, I love this thing. I love cooking quick and easy food. Here is what I do to get shredded chicken that I use for sandwiches, etc.

Why is this ad in the middle of that Instant-Pot ad?

I am addicted to mine! It makes some damn good "one pot" meals and speeds up most things. I use mine a lot for making dried beans instead of canned, all kinds of soups, and bigger roasts that take longer to really render out and tenderize.

The only thing that takes some getting used to is adjusting the liquid amounts when cooking under pressure. For example, the first time I made rice in it I just followed my normal recipe (I use the hack of measuring the water line based on your index finger's first knuckle) and it was way too much liquid! The rice was too mushy. The second time I reduced by a bit and it turned out much better! If you're making rice I recommend experimenting a bit for ratios, using smaller recipe sizes, before you cook up a giant batch!

There are a TON of great recipes for the InstantPot out there too! Some are "authorized" but really just do a google search for instant pot recipes and you'll find a bunch of blogs!

The soups are fantastic. It's winter, already on recipe number three. Instapot is the best.
