Amazing Product!!
I was contemplating purchasing an Instant Pot for months but something was holding me back. We had an office party and a friend had made carnitas in under two hours using an Express Crock while in the office. My friend browned a whole five-pound pork shoulder and pressure cooked it in no time at all. It was the best carnitas I had had in a long time. It convinced me to purchase an Express Crock immediately and I haven't been disappointed since. It has saved me hours in the kitchen and has saved me quite a bit of money and it's probably saved my family's health. We used to get so much fast food and take out that our health was suffering.
We had to make a change and Express Crock came at the right time. I have been able to make delicious quick and easy meals in the time it takes me to go through a drive thru. I've made numerous meals in my Express Crock and some in under fifteen minutes. That includes the time it took me to prep, brown/saute, and cook the meal. The browning feature is so helpful to make the meal that much more flavorful. With older more traditional slow-cookers I would have to prep my meat and veg on the stove in order to get more flavor...I can now skip that step completely.
I can make one pot meals, rice, lentils, soup, chili, dessert and even yogurt (even though I haven't tried that yet.) Honestly, this is now my favorite kitchen appliance that I have and it clearly replaces a few that I already had. It is also my go to Christmas gift for the season, the price is amazing at just $49.99...I am sending this to pretty much all my family members. I just can't say enough good things about the Express Crock!
