It was a cold and rainy day here in Georgia and I wanted some beans. I had a package of 15 bean soup so I
rinsed the beans, put in 9 cups of chicken broth, 1 onion, 2 tsp of minced garlic and the seasoning packet and
a pound of leftover pulled pork then put them in my new toy. I ordered this the other day from HSN when they
were on sale. It is the Elite Platinum 8 quart electric pressure cooker with 13 presets. I set the cooker for soup
and manually set a time of 35 minutes. It took about 15 minutes to come up to pressure before it started the
timer.

Here is my bowl!

I am amazed at how well the beans came out in the pressure cooker. This is the first time I have used one, but
it won’t be the last time. It took just about an hour and fifteen minutes from start to finish. If I would have
cooked them the way I normally do it would have taken several hours. After I have used it several times I will
do a product review.

I have been seeing the electronic pressure cookers - and wondering about them Mike...Thanks for this. Looking forward to seeing more uses for it!

I have been researching the various types of pressure cookers, also. I'll be following this one, too.

Nice bowl of soup, Mike.

Great looking 15 bean soup, I love that stuff. I also love my pressure cooker too, got two of them, one is a stovetop version and the other is a microwave version. I can do my red beans and rice in about 90 minutes with a pressure cooker vs all day simmer in a slow cooker. Great time saver when needed.

Nice work.

The beans look great HOS!!! Don

Great looking soup Mike! I could go for a bowl of all that flavor!
-
Nice HOS! Really looks good!
Great new toy!

Good looking soup.

Looks excellent. The wife even lets me keep my electronic pressure cooker on the counter now :)

Do we have a section for Pressure cookers? Looks good to me Mike..WTG, nice cook. I have the best recipe for unstuffed cabbage rolls that only takes 25 minutes in the pressure cooker..I don't have the digital one, but I'm sure the timing is the same. Pam .☆´¯`•.¸¸. ི♥ྀ.

I still do not have a pressure cooker. I figured it would be something that I buy and never use!
These cooks are changing my mind. And they look so easy to use now and so advanced I might need to pick one up soon!

Getting a pressure cooker is like getting a sous vide, once you get one you'll wonder why you waited so long. ;)

I've been watching pressure cookers at 3 in the morning on an infomercial. I almost bought, but I wondered if you will still get that slow roasted flavor an oven brings. I like the 1 hour versus 7 hours cooking but don't want to lose the flavors that a slow roast brings.

Sure.....All you need to do is a add a little Tenda Rub to your pressure cooker recipe and it's golden. ::) :P

Im going to try this recipe tomorrow and I will let you know. I don't like bay leaves so does anyone have a substitute suggestion?

I use to do that too, joined a support group, helped me out a lot. :P
