Like you, I've cooked in cast iron, stove top pressure cookers, slow cookers and this thing really is handy.

Used to the sound of that tinkling regulator on top. Don't know why it happened other than the safety plug in the lid blew, but I assume all that stuff on the ceiling was both tasty and tender. We just cleaned it up; nobody to my knowledge had any inclination to taste it.BobFnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12389938.post-49102273186273392022017-01-01T11:19:32.148-06:002017-01-01T11:19:32.148-06:00When I was just a wee sprog about a hunnert years...When I was just a wee sprog about a hunnert years ago9 my dad bought my mom a pressure cooker cause she'd been hinting that she wanted one pretty bad,when she dug supper, spare ribs and sauerkraut, out of that thing the meat was a grayish brown sludge in the bottom and the kraut had nearly disappeared. Mom was so mad that dad just took us to a little cafe and let us all order what we wanted, Mom still has the pressure cooker, it serves very well for popping corn and has for nearly 65 years now.<br /><br />I used to carry it hiking in the Cascades, I made some really good meals in it over an open fire and a altitudes over 7000 feet it actually cooked stuff that barely got warm in an open kettle. one of my favorites was bean and hamburger soup with onions, celery and bell pepper. That simply wouldn't cook in a kettle, but was wonderful cooked in Mom's "corn popper."<br /><br />Gerry Nnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12389938.post-65199694601267374172016-12-31T17:41:39.620-06:002016-12-31T17:41:39.620-06:00My mother had one many years ago. Now, I don't...My mother had one many years ago. Now, I don't know how she did it but, you know the pressure relief valve on top? Somehow she managed to pass the entire contents of the cooker through that little hole and painted the kitchen ceiling at the same time. She never used it again.Timmeehhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14947474034421954929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12389938.post-91636967515465941422016-12-31T14:55:37.675-06:002016-12-31T14:55:37.675-06:00Hrmmm...

Interested for the pressure cooker and as a light duty pressure canner. Which is supposed to be a great feature.JayNolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08968502576630432928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12389938.post-48192737806399822392016-12-31T11:01:43.698-06:002016-12-31T11:01:43.698-06:00As good descendants of Spanish and Latins, Pressur...As good descendants of Spanish and Latins, Pressure cookers are a MUST, we have 2 old school Presto and they get used every week. <br /><br />I just don't know about them newfangled electric things...
