I am cooking a beef roast in boiling water how long on stove top and when to I put vegetables in pot to cook. It is a 2 pound roast

1 hour per pound in oven at 350. Same if you boil or simmer, microwave is 20 to 30 mn per pound.

put roast in. hit beef button. let pressure cool. hit beef button again.let pressure down on itself. enjoy do not forget that you still need enough water to make steam. That water also you will need to make GRAVY.

1. Place roast in crockpot.
2. Sprinkle 1 tsp salt over one side of the roast. ...
3. Then add garlic, oregano, and thyme evenly over the meat.
4. Tuck the onion quarters, carrots and potatoes around the roast.
5. Add ½ cup beef stock/water and turn on low for 8 hours or high for 5 hours.

...You can Heat Or Cook a Roast Beef in your Hamilton Beach
Crockpot. Never use ANY of its Parts in a Regular Gas or Electric
Oven! Remember to Spray the inside of the Crockpot with a little PAM, before you cook, and add a little Water also...Not much...just a little; as foods will always Add their own juices.

The company had a major recall and went out of business. No manuals appear to be available on the web.
Here are some general instructions you can use:

1 Set up your cooker. Place your Ultrex Pressure Cooker on the stove. Remove the lid and pour in no more than 2 inches of water. Depending on what you are cooking the amount of water will vary. More water will ultimately cook larger amounts of food, but you will need to refer to your specific model's instructions on this matter.

2 Put in the food you wish to cook. Close and lock the lid firm to the pot. Make sure it is locked securely so none of contents boil out of the top.

3 Turn on your burner to high heat for approximately ten minutes. Allow the water to boil.

4 Turn the stove down to a low setting after the water is boiling in the cooker. Flip the pressure valve closed and allow your food to simmer.

Set the pressure valve to ten pounds. For vegetables, cook 30 to 45 minutes. For meats, cook 45 to 60 minutes.5

6 Open the pressure valve and allow the pressure to discharge. Unlock and remove the lid to find your fully cooked meal.

is this the one?

hi !:)

Pour 2 - 3glass of water into the cooker and keep the pot inside the cooker and add the items you want to cook switch the stove the water starts to boil add the items and start cooking ...don't forget to cover the top part of the cooker :)

have fun! :)

Well, that all depends on how dense a sloppy joe mixture you make. If you add pounds and pounds of ground beef to the mix and just the sloppy joe sauce, then it would be many pounds.

But as for a good rule of thumb, "A pints a pound the world around" In other words, if you're making sloppy joes from the pre-mixed cans, just weigh one 16 oz (1 pint) can and that's 1/2 quart.

If you're making it yourself, we're back to the whole density of your chosen ingredents.

However, I've done a little research for you and based on the density of cooked beef and converting the weight of that cooked beef into the 5 quart volume of your crockpot, I've come up with the following info for you.

Cooked Beef has a density 129.52 Ounces per Gallon (a technical measurement)

So based on that data (not including your sloppy joe seasoning/sauce and other add-ins), you should get approximately 10.12 Pounds of Sloppy Joe Mixture to fit into your 5 Quart Crockpot.

I would guess that the amount would be just slightly less, since you might want a little room for putting on the lid, etc., but you should get around 10 Pounds to fit easily in your 5 quart crockpot.

I hope you find this Very Helpful and best regards!

if it is recommended that you cook for 7 hours on medium I would think the you would cook it on high for 3-1/2 hours, and or low for 14 hours but check it with a meat thermometer every hour
