2 uses in one day.
Hard boiled 6 eggs perfectly yesterday morning.
Then, given the crappy rainy chilly weather and JMU kicking off yesterday and dominating we tried chili, following the same ingredients I use for simple slow cooker chili
Saute setting to brown the burger with a drizzle of olive oil

Hit the Bean/Chili button and let her do her thing.
We vented when we were ready to eat, which was about 30min after it finished and was on keep warm.

I gotta be honest, it had the same flavor as the chili coming out of the slow cooker after like 8hrs.
I did not need to add in that last cup of water, but I was so used to losing moisture in the slow cooker. So it had more liquid than I typically like.
The fact that I can have chili in about 45 minutes vs 8 hrs is amazing. Browning in the pot was awesome vs having another pan to clean.
A+, wish I had bought this thing weeks ago.
