recipe indicates otherwise, the
cooking times given are for 3 lbs of
meat or poultry. Also, the larger the
cut of meat, the longer the cooking
time will be.
• After the cooking time, let the
pressure decrease naturally.
• When you cook beef or poultry with
vegetables, begin by cooking the meat
in stock or another liquid. Subtract
from the cooking time recommended
for the meat, the cooking time of
the vegetable ingredient which takes
longest to cook. Pressure cooker the
meat first. Release the pressure from
the cooking using the quick release
method. Open the cooker and add the
vegetables. Continue pressure cooking
for the cooking time recommended for
the vegetables. Check the seasoning.
If you want to add vegetables
which cook rapidly, such as peas or
mushrooms, do not pressure cook
them with the other vegetables. Add
them to the cooker before serving and
boil them in the pressure cooker with
the lid off until they are ready.

recipes, such as tomato sauce and fruit
preserves provide the best results.
Meats and Poultry: When preparing
meats and poultry, brown well in the
pressure cooker pot using at least 2
tablespoons of vegetable or olive oil. Pour
