For what it’s worth comment: Some pressure canners work well as pressure cookers. During the recent tropical storm that passed through SC, NC and VA, our power was out for five days. My intent was to cook a pot roast in the crock pot before the power went out. I was able to cook the 3 lb roast, carrots, onions and ‘taters on the gas range in approximately 40 minutes. Even though we have a backup generator, I don’t like to use electricity to heat stuff – other than the coffee pot first thing in the morning. I don’t have the patience or the ability to use the pour over before my first few cups.
