30+ minutes depending on amount of liquid and food in Cooking
Pot.
• Set Temperature Probe to about 10°F (-12°C) lower than the
recommended doneness temperature on Recommended Settings
chart. Temperature may vary depending on size and thickness of
meat or poultry. Refer to charts on page 11 and adjust temperature
as necessary. Your food will continue to cook while pressure is
releasing.
• Once desired temperature is reached, release pressure
immediately. Meat continues to cook while Cooker is pressurized.
• Allow meat to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before carving.
