Sounds good. I haven’t purchased one yet but I will probably pull the trigger and order it.

I just got a 3-quart model a few days ago for the RPod and am testing it out at home now. So far, we've made great steel-cut oats oatmeal and an awesome beef stew. We're really liking it, as it allows us to use more natural ingredients when cooking vs store bought. I'll try to remember to post a recipe or two here on in one of my YouTube videos. ~PP

ive been wanting to try an Insta-Pot for awhile and outfitting my new Rpod gave me the incentive, purchased the smallest version. I will be by myself often or with my hubby.

Anybody have some good,low-carb one pot recipes?

I’ve have a regular Faber pressure cooker as well as a big canning PC but haven’t really spent much time cooking meals in the Faber.

I chose the Insta-pot because it looks like it can also be used as a slow-cooker. Perfect for by myself at dog shows. I can plug it in when I arrive and enjoy a pot of hot goodness when I’m done for the day.

I’m following South Beach so looking for SB friendly,RV friendly recipes if anybody would like to share. My pot should be here today or tomorrow.

I also bought a nesting stainless steel pot set. Now I just need a little skillet for eggs/crepes and will probably get a smaller version of my blue steel pan since they are so durable/inexpensive/nonstick and basically a cast iron without the weight. I don’t use non-stick much so steel is what I chose. I have a little steel crepe pan in the house I’ll take with me this weekend.

We've been looking at the Instant pot too!

As we have a 152, we have very limited storage and basically have to to pare down our appliances and pre-plan our camping menu to a degree. So half the time it's electric vs stovetop in deciding what to pack and how to cook it.

Currently we have so much squirreled-away in various places that it's starting to become a chore to dig it out when we need it. So we're starting to take things out of the pod kitchen instead of adding things like we did a few years back. The Instant Pot is on the short list but we kind of feel silly bringing an Instant Pot as well as a stovetop pressure cooker. Tongue

I have a "Instant pot" electric pressure cooker, it has a lot of features, like high and low pressure, crock pot slow cooker, saute, steam, rice cooker, and many other features love the thing, works excellent, fast and very energy efficient]]> Fri, 24 Jun 2016 19:03:50 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4712&PID=77845#77845 Pressure cookers : Best sizes for pod cooking https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4712&PID=69116#69116 Author: StephenH

Check out Magma 10 Piece Stainless Steel Induction Cook-Top Gourmet Nesting Cookware Set. You can find it on a number of sites. We got ours at the site named for a river in South America. I have seen it in a web search at a number of sites at various prices. Magma also makes a non-stick version. The stainless, if not overheated, is sufficiently non-stick for me and there is no coating to scratch or wear off.

We had looked at induction cooktops early on but the plug-in models didn't seem to have enough power. Plus we were afraid that more powerful models would blow out the circuits in the pod.

We'll have a look at the newer models since it's been a few years since we last looked.

We used an induction cooktop on our recent trip. It was a model we picked up at Aldi and varies between 100 Watts and 1800 Watts of cooking power. We had no problems using it.

Watts = Volts * Amperes. At 120 Volts, 1800 Watts is 15 Amperes. That is within the capability of the R-Pod's wiring. Most of the time, you would not be using it at full power anyway. Full power is good for bringing water to a boil (quite fast), but would be too much power for most other cooking. Once the pan warms up, I find that I can cut the power down to 600 Watts or less.

We got the 10 piece induction ready nesting cookware set from Magma. It works well and does not take up a huge amount of space. The handles are excellent also and won't fall off like the ones from the cheap nesting cookware sets. This is real cookware.

Since this thread is in the wrong location, but the OP already started an identical thread in the correct location, let's move the discussion there...

You have 3 detectors in the pod, smoke, carbon monoxide, and propane. Propane is the only one that is hardwired, and usually when people think they have a beeping smoke detector, they actually have a beeping propane detector because it "alarms" at about 11.5v for some reason. I have never had a smoke detector or cO detector that gave more than 1 or two beeps after the battery was removed.

The smoke detector can be removed by giving it a counter clockwise twist. Remove it from the pod, take it in the house. If it's still beeping, with a new battery in it, replace it. The pod is a very small space and it's often very hard to tell where a beep might be coming from.
