How To: BUY THE RIGHT INSTANT POT FOR YOU (Part One)

Instant Pots are the rage. Have been, still are. No doubt about it. But there are so many models on the market, how do you know the one that's right for you.

We're veteran cookbook authors Bruce Weinstein & Mark Scarbrough, authors of over three-dozen titles, including the national best-seller THE INSTANT POT BIBLE (which you can find here), THE INSTANT POT BIBLE: THE NEXT GENERATION (which you can find here) FROM FREEZER TO INSTANT POT: THE COOKBOOK (which you can find here), and INSTANT POT BIBLE: COPYCAT RECIPES (which you can find here).

This podcast episode is the first in a two-part series on choosing the right Instant Pot for you. Here are the segments of this episode of COOKING WITH BRUCE & MARK:

[04:07] Are you a beginner? You need a Duo.

[05:00] What size do you need, a 3-quart pot, a 6-quart, or an 8-quart?

[06:45] Do you want to get cheffy and try out the "sous vide" method of cooking?

[09:58] If releasing steam scares you, you need these models.

[14:28] These models have indicator lights to measure the remaining time in the cooking process under pressure.
