So if you don't have crock pot already, just get that?

Sure. But the crock is always good for keeping and serving chili and stuff like that. Instant pot is more of a way to cook, not something you would serve food out of although maybe you can. The instruction book and cook book it comes with is pretty thick and haven't read a lick of it.

From what I've heard, it's basically a so-so slow cooker and a so-so pressure cooker combined. So, if you don't have either, then it might make sense since it'll kill two birds with one stone (and take up less space than having two applicances). If you already have a slow cooker or a pressure cooker, though, you may just want to buy the other. They're both amazingly useful, but very different - actually, kind of the opposite of each other.
We probably should have a pressure cooker thread here. That thing is fucking magic. Real-deal chili verde in 30 minutes, homemade enchilada sauce (including perfectly cooked chicken) in 15 minutes, risotto in 8 minutes... definitely a weeknight miracle machine. I have a stovetop pressure cooker (not an electric one) that cost I think $50 and is amazing.Outlive the bastards - Ed Abbey

Three pounds of bone-in pork shoulder seasoned with garlic powder, salt, pepper, smoked paprika and browned on all sides, then put in the pot on a bed of onions and garlic with a half a can of Rainier and some homemade salsa.
Fell off the bone six hours in but not quite ready to be forked. Perhaps a bit of a broil to get some crispy bits when it's all said and done. Certainly smells good!Putting the "core" in corporate, one turn at a time.

Do not, I repeat, do not try to make French onion soup in your crock pot. Slow cooking a few pounds of onions permeates everything in your house.
Put the crock pot on at 7 pm with the onions, woke up at 3am with burning eyes in my bedroom behind closed doors. Took days to air out.
Good soup though.

Cannot believe this thread has been stagnant for so long.
Just blew out my knee so will be going deep on the cooking front.
Currently making a Cochinita pibil.
Bunch of crazy seasonings - making it with wild boar - see fall days afield thread.
Oh, I disagree on the french onion soup - caramelize the onions in a covered pot - then transfer to crock pot = no worries,
I use caribou stock for excellent flavor.

Good stuff everyone.
Wanted to add that last fall I found the slo cooker method to make black garlic.
I also use an external thermostat as the low temp setting of 200F was too high. 170F is just right and it still takes about 6 days to finish but the results are great and it’s way less that the 1-2 months of other methods.
It will be smelly and I used an old bath towel over the crock pot to stifle the worst of it.
Keep on slo cooking.watch out for snakes

Costco Prime Beef pot roast at $5.99 lb is a bargain.
