Yeah I never used one before 2 years ago and now outside the summer, we use one 5 or 6 days a week. You can’t beat the efficiency of it. It will make a soup in 30 minutes, with meat 40 and the meat is tender enough to fall off the bone or just fall apart.
For sure it’s good to see what other people are doing and get ideas about what we can do different! I know I’ve changed a few things based on what others have said in comments and it’s cool!
