Why Use a Slow Cooker for Thanksgiving?
The slow cooker is great for Thanksgiving because of the way you can start the food early and don’t have to watch it. And you can easily have more than one slow cooker going if you have several side dishes that work in the slow cooker. Slow Cookers are also great for keeping things warm while you prep other dishes.
Why Use an Instant Pot for Thanksgiving?
When you’re making a holiday meal, the Instant Pot is great for things like mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, or creamed corn, where you can make them at the last minute without taking up valuable space on the stove. And the Instant Pot is fantastic for condiments like cranberry sauce. And just like the slow cooker, the Instant Pot is also a wonderful tool for keeping things warm.
