wait isn't this the guy that never talks in the Dan science segments?! he's so good on camera!! more Joe please!

[craigdowski]

Joe certainly is a natural on-camera. I'm surprised he isn't one of the regular on-camera ATK test cooks like Keith Dresser and Dan Souza.

Joe is a total natural on camera, can’t wait for more of these.

Super entertaining. Not only is it a great lesson on braising fundamentals, but it's also an excellent introduction for anyone wondering if the InstantPot is right for them. (It is.)

I love my pressure cooker. It allows me to make all kinds of meals in a manageable amount of time, and I agree that the newer versions are much better than the first few iterations. I upgraded a couple of years ago, and the difference is stark!

We want more recipes for instapot like this from joe! :)

@10:48 and @14:16 this is not because of the high temperature alone. The boiling point is reduced from the depressurization. With the high temperatures inside, this is flashing the water to steam inside the meat, which will cause the meat to expand to some extent, and then contract when it gets back to atmospheric pressure. So it's not only drying it out, but it is physically mangling the meat fibers.

Fantastic video! Joe is a terrific cook and delightfully engaging presence onscreen. Really does make me want to dig my Instapot out of the back of the pantry and start using it again. Thanks, Joe and ATC!

[HannahFenton-eg]

The ice trick for depressurization is so cool!! Thanks, joe! Can’t wait for more vids

[frankunderbush]

From the title I thought Joe had to physically duel the rest of ATK. Disappointed.
Delicious food though.

I’d love more recipes like this with the instapot and others as well. Like coq au vin, chicken in white white sauce, turkey chili, etc. As a working dad that does all the cooking life is hectic. I have to cook for four after a busy day at work it’s nice to be able to get a good healthy dinner on the table in under an hour that tastes great.

Joe knocked it out of the park! He should be a regular because he’s so well spoken and funny!

[Abadircaroline]

My goodness - this video just made me want to buy an instant pot and make that recipe!! So clear so engaging so relatable… I will definitely need more videos recipes from Joe to hone my instant pot skills - please!

Just cooked my entire at Patrick's Day meal in my instant pot yesterday! Meat first... 1 hour, instead of several and the 10 lbs of corned beef was perfect! Potatoes and carrots next in the juice... Cooked to perfection in less than 10 minutes! Cabbage last for 1 minute on low pressure and it was falling apart! The steam from the last cook was pretty much enough. All that and I didn't have to turn on my HOT oven at all!

[katherinemiddleton]

Great video! Would love to see some chicken thigh and drumsticks recipes. Also a classic beef pot roast. I love my multicooker for making chicken broth, but would like to learn more recipes! Thank you for this

[dcrossification]

Good God, he sounds exactly like Ronnie Corbett. He should sit back in a big chair and tell a long joke.

[ashleywmoore]

Love this new series!!! Joe is so fun to watch and full of knowledge!

[CCHavens]

This video was super fun and so informative. Fond! I learned a new word. I love Joe’s engaging entertaining style. He makes me want to be more passionate about my food preparation and now I’m feeling more confident about tackling pressure cooking.

Great video. Your volume is quieter than most videos I've watched on YouTube. It was almost hard to hear you with non-ear-covering headphones (also not noise cancelling) with moderate background noise. Most YouTube videos would be easier to hear. Don't need it to be blasting, just a tiny bit louder. Just a suggestion for people who are hard of hearing.
