Ok, what’s a burrito bowl?

its like a burrito but instead of eating it in a tortilla you just east it out of a bowl. In the spirit of full disclosure I didn't know either until I found the recipe

Got one of these instant pots for Christmas. I am going to attempt seafood chowder today. I am curious to see if they are as great as advertised.

I had to click on this topic due to the title! 

Thought it was about the other "POT"!

I did a chicken at 45 min, little over cooked but still juicy. I think 25 and resting would do it.

Make sure it's instant pot brand with the stainless steel inner cooking pot.   I got the wrong one and it didn't last, the teflon came off in just a few months.  Also with the instant pot there's big online community facebook support groups with some cool recipes, they kinda shun other brands and won't let you post images showing other brands.."oh you got xxx brand, I don't know how those work"  etc..

I just picked up the duo plus 80  9-in-1 instant pot, it's the bigger 8QT pot with the most settings.  There's other 8QT models, but they don't have as much bling

I just put pinto beans, diced ham, course chopped onion and garlic in and covered it with water. I'll tell you how it is in and hour or so

[jdb]

Beans were a miserable failure. I think I needed more water and long cooking time

[KFhunter]

That sucks, but ya the beans will soak up your water and go dry.

I made them quite a few times, what I like to do now is a quick pressure cook to swell up the beans a little (but not soft yet) then drain/rinse them.  That gets out the gas inducing tannins..

then add your onions, ham, and other flavorings then finish cooking the rest of the way.

I find my instapot is pretty lame as a crock pot. I have yet to have it work. It does work great using the pressure cooker settings. I dont eat yogurt so havent tried that feature. I could look up recipes and stuff but meh that is not how I cook. I just experiment until I like how it turns out.
