| My DH got an electric smoker for an early Christmas present. He will do turkey breast, legs, thighs and 3 cheese mac + cheese in the smoker. Both our sons are coming in on . WEdnesday, so I will do a ham dinner then just in case our younger son has to leave early on Thursday for his work schedule in the afternoon.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Just an update...we LOVED using this cooker/fryer!! So totally convenient bc you just throw the turkey in there and forget it until later. Very moist too! But the biggest upside is that you no longer have to deal w/ having to work around a turkey taking up your oven - so great! It's a total keeper. Going to try ribs in it next for the hubs.

| We ordered all our meats from Honey Baked Hams, but it will just be my son and I here for Christmas, so we will use this cooker for Christmas. I got the propane one, simply because in case of hurricanes and loss of power, we have a way to cook! I am anxious to use it, excited about the reviews so far! Hope it browns the outside of the meat! |

| Ann - so glad you liked your turkey. It's amazing what these jewels will cook and how good it turns out. Judy - get busy woman, no need to wait until Christmas. lol And yes, it will brown the skin. I start mine with the lid off (keeps the skin from getting too brown while the meat cooks) and add it for the last of the cooking to really brown up that skin. It's awesome. I bought the propane in case of Hurricanes also. During some hurricanes I only had a propane burner and my bbq pit. We definitely have to have a way to cook up all that good stuff that is thawing in the freezer when you've been without electricity for days on end. If you'd like another good find - check out the Insta Pot electric pressure cooker (I have the DUO 7-1). I never cooked with one before now but I remember my Nannee always had something cooking in hers - many many moons ago. This electric one is the best thing I've ever added to my kitchen. Not only does it cook your meals in very little time, the flavor seems so much better. I forgot to thaw something for dinner one night, put frozen chicken thighs in the pot - cooked in 10 minutes to perfection (after it came to pressure). I've made mac & cheese like nothing I've ever tasted they were so good. It was awesome at Thanksgiving - I made a Caramel Pecan Pumpkin cheesecake in 15 mins, boiled eggs in 6 mins. that peel like you wouldn't believe until you did it yourself, so easy. I've made so many wonderful meals in this pot. I never was much for cooking, actually hated to cook - but now even my husband loves my Insta Pot. Just in case you haven't figured it out - I love my Insta Pot. Geez, I sound like an infomercial.

I don't know about the stove top pressure cooker, I would be too nervous to use one. The first time I used my electric one, it beeped when it reached pressure and I almost ran out of the kitchen. lol You can look on facebook for the Instant Pot Community and see a lot of dishes & discussions on it's use. It really is a great appliance.

| I would really go check one out in person and if you can find it cheaper on Amazon or whatever then buy it, but after you look at it in real life. I've been looking for a while and a LOT of them have really crappy lids. It doesn't feel substantial when you open and close. It should open smoothly and click easily. If anyone watched America's Test Kitchen, Christopher Kimball is kinda like the not-so-eccentric Alton Brown and he said all pressure cookers nowadays are pretty safe. It's just a preference for me to want a lid that feels good, esp for paying $100+. Just don't buy an old one from a thrift shop! I've seen a bunch and I was tempted, until I heard him say that.
