Slow cookers and crock pots emit heat from all sides. The slow cooker feature on pressure cookers only emits heat from the bottom. So you're taking a risk when you try to slow cook a roast in the IP unless it's totally covered in water.
I primarily used my slow cooker to infuse oils/butter and make beans, so the slow cooker on the IP will work for me. But beware if you want to slow cook a roast.
Gonna make chicken soup this weekend in the IP using frozen chicken.
Very happy with this product.

Now that you mention frozen chicken...I have found that cooking frozen meat is much better than cooking thawed meat. I wonder what causes that?
