Hi Dave,
RH> It's fun, tho I know not everybody aappreciates a pun.
DD> Sometimes it's a stretch to see the humour in a pun. Or to find a good
DD> recipe with which to d a "Burton". I try to make all my "conversational"
DD> posts have a recipe that relates to something is the conversation -
DD> and thereby honouring the memory of our late friend.
RH> With the data base you appear to have, the hardest part of that is
RH> probably the search for just the right one.
DD> Many times that's true. But, sometimes, like in today's "Today in
DD> History" post I have to rely on the Bing search engine to find just

RH> It actually looks quite easy, if you have an instant pot or equivalent.
RH> We have the equivalent, one for in the house and one for the camper.
DD> I gave my "Instant Pot" to my sister-in-law who has much more counter/
DD> cabinet space than I weill ever have unless I move. But, I have an old
DD> (from my mother) Mary Dunbar pressure cooker - so I can "fake it" with
DD> what I have on hand.
I've also got my 8 qt pressure cooker (used to have a 22 qt one but sold
it when Steve went into the Army) that gets plenty of use. Will pull out
the water bath canner next week tho, to proccess fig preserves.
DD> And truth ti ttell many/most "Instant Pot" recipes cross over to using
DD> a crockpot/slow cooker quite handily. And I do have a selection of
DD> those from the baby 1 quart to the big counter hog - the "casserole"
DD> crocktpot.
I've got the baby, a 4qt and a 6 qt crock pot; they all have their uses
but probably use the first and 3rd more than the middle one.
DD> The big boy is quite handy for one-pot meals. To wit:
