I know I mentioned in my I Bought An Instant Pot Pressure Cooker post that it would never replace my favorite appliance the slow cooker.

But the more I use my 6 quart Instant Pot electric pressure cooker the more I fall in love with it.

I have only used the pressure cooker or steam cooking setting so far. I am seriously afraid to use the slow cooker setting at this point. What if I fall in love with it too?

In one sense I could get rid of all the crock pots I own. And I own a lot of crock pots. I think I have 10 crock pot slow cookers!

I don't know what I am going to do?

I love my crock pots and I know exactly which size crock pot to use depending on the slow cooker recipe I am making.

What do you think?

I'd love to hear from anyone who has started using their Instant Pot on the Slow Cooker setting and if you are happy with the way it slow cooks your favorite crock pot recipes.
