What is an Instant Pot?
Great question!
Check out our previous post that features our 10 Favourite Instant Pot recipes that feature meat for a more detailed answer, but in essence, The Instant Pot is seven different appliances or kitchen tools — all in one.
It can do the job of:

- an electric pressure cooker
- a rice cooker
- a steamer
- a yogurt maker
- a sauté/browning pan
- a warming pot
Essentially, it’s an all-in-one cooker!
