time to cook hambergers
We made them much bigger with pasta….so easy any yummy
Not enough cooked (instant pot 6qt) so I add 8 minutes.
Delicious
I had to add some water. Kept telling me food butn
Had to add water….due to BURN notice. So then had to use SAUTE to reduce the sauce.
Also, the 8 min wasn’t long enough to cook the meatballs. But the simmering I had to do to reduce the sauce, finished cooking the meatballs. I added Italian Seasoning and some fennel seeds to the sauce while simmering. All that said: think they’re pretty good and I’ll do this again (prepared by my experiences).
It was a giant mess. The screen kept flashing burn because of the oil in the bottom of the pot from the saute function. After 45 minutes of having the burn screen on and off, we just gave up.
Got the burn food notice twice. Added water to my sauce to thin it out. 8 minutes and the meatballs were not cooked through. Definitely add more time. I added 5 more minutes.
How much is 1/2 box of Panko crumbs? I buy it in bulk.
Thanks
Always getting the burn message. Not enough info to acoid this problem.
Kept getting burn indicator and could not get the instant pot to pressure cook. Ended up slow cooking the meatballs and sauce. Would not recommend this recipe for Instant Pot.
Just fyi…to avoid getting the burn indicator message, InstantPot recommends taking the inner pot out for 5-10 minutes when switching between the saute and pressure cook functions. Used to get the same burn alerts on recipes until I started doing this.
Would not recommend this recipe! I had to make it into meat sauce in the top stove because it kept burning in the instant pot. 🙁 basically made Italian sloppy joe style.
Made these several times. Usually cut the recipe in half. So tender and tasty. Love them in meatball subs!
Really disappointing and unclear recipe. Is it two 28 oz cans of crushed tomatoes, or a total of 28 oz? How much is half a box of breadcrumbs (which are sold in different sizes)? I also received a burn notice within about 1 min of pressure cooking so cancelled it and added 2 cups of beef stock and that seemed to solve the problem. Since I had to keep stirring liquid in, some of my meatballs fell apart though.
Gave you give the panko breadcrumbs in ounces, grams, cups, or spoons.
Thank You
I have made these twice now, both times having received the burn indicator. First time I simply added some water, second time I added water and still the burn indicator persisted. Finally removed all the meatballs and put the trivet it. Put all the meatballs back in piled on and around the trivet. Cooked for 11 minutes based on previous reviews. Is a delish meal but the recipe definitely needs adjustments for cooking time and use of a trivet.
I used the trivet and added about 1/2 cup of chicken broth, after doing this i did not ecperience the Burn error. I used ground chicken instead of beef. Also, the recipe is vague regarding the crushed tomatoes. I used 2 twenty eight ounce cans, and it turned out great.
Also kept getting burn notice, finishing on stove top…but I will try again with the technique of removing pot between sauté and pressure cook…that makes sense!
I didnt make the reco
All I did different was I used fresh herbs, (basil, oregano and flat parsley) and I browned my meatballs first in a frying pan, just until the sides were brown. Then I added them to the sauce. I cooked it on low for 20 min, about to eat, but it smells amazing
I am also getting the burn indicator. Totally annoying I am trying to reduce the sauce a bit we will see. Not sure why they aren’t adjusting the recipe base on this feedback. Also it’s not clear on the recipe if it is 2 28oz cans of tomatoes or 28oz total. I hate incomplete recipes and I am new to this thing.
Also getting the food burn error. They should adjust this recipe. So annoying as I am new to this Insta Pot.
Don’t make this
I made this reciepe last night…I only used 1 28oz can and didnt have any burnt notice. I also had to add extra time for cooking. I used a reciep before this that said to help prevent the burnt notice when going from saute to pressure cook to scrape any black stuff from bottom of the inner pot. I also turned saute off as soon as I added the crushed tomatoes and mixed it before adding meatballs and after I added the meatballs I put lid on and set the instant pot to pressure cooker.
What a disaster. It took me so long to cook this recipe. The burn noticed freaked me out until I googled it. Then I added 1/2 of water. Burn message once again. A total of three rounds including taking out half the meatballs. Eventually I gave up and cooked them on the stove top with the ones I could salvage. I wish I had read these comments before taking on this recipe. If you’ve cooked this recipe successfully please share specifics. Thanks and lesson learned .
Ok so this recipe turned out fantastic for me I mixed the ground beef with italian sausage (not links) anyway I did not get the burn indicator because I forgot to saute the onions prior to adding the sauce based on these comments I am so glad I forgot anyway it turned out great and I served it with bow tie noodles, salad, and garlic bread family loved it super moist and not dence!!!
My favourite recipe….if you turn off saute ante scrape the pot you will never get the burn. Quickly brown first if you prefer some texture but either way they always work out great.
Wasted my time, put them through 3 times, each time adding more liquid and cleaning the bottom. We had a soupy mix and crumbled meatballs. In the end, after an hour of this, and a mess in the kitchen, we ended up cooking the whole thing in the oven. No good, and a waste of perfectly good ingredients, not to mention my time.
I bought meatballs from the meat counter at Whole Foods and used this recipe to create the sauce and to cook the meatballs. My meatballs were perfectly cooked. I didn’t get the burn indicator (and I sometimes do for other recipes) and I topped them with fresh mozzarella. They came out very tasty. Will make again and will try the meatball recipe part.
Thanks to all who posted the results that were not very favorable, back to the Dutch oven’
How is “half a box of breadcrumbs” a measurement for a recipe?
I used one cup of bread crumbs, two 28 oz cans of tomatoes. Removed Instant Pot from base unit for 5+ minutes to cool in between the sauté and pressure cook phase. VOILA! BEST MEATBALLS EVER!
oh yea…and 13 mins pressure cook.
I sauted my onions and just turned it off while mixing up my meatballs and the did it as written except I used 1/2 cup of bread crumbsand I didnt have the parsley but I had everything else and I knew with sausage and beef that I should cook my meatballs longer and I used 2 28 oz cans of the tomatoes and added 10 minutes to the cook time and yummmmmm!!!! I never add water except to get all the sauce out and only a spash of water per can and swish it around!!!!
stupid wife added 1/2 box of penko crumbs. it was a 2 pound box. This isn’t the first time we all sat down to eat then throw the food away and settle for Fruit Loops. I wish the recipes were idiot proof. I dont think its healthy for my children to be eating sugary cereals for brakfast and dinner or am I over reacting
To the previous reply named Anonymous. My stupid wife did the exact same thing with a 2 pound box of penko crumbs. she also kept wining about some burn notice which didn’t surprise me cause she manages to burn our meals quite frequently. What a waste of hard earned money and food. Instead of Fruit Loops we settled for doughy pancakes. At least they weren’t burnt. I looked over the recipe as well as the replies and gave her a full pardon on this meal. She said she’ll make it up to me tonight. God I love this woman!!!
I have made this recipe numerous times in my old instant pot without a problem. Always came out perfect and delicious. Had to replace my instant pot with a new one. Tried this recipe in the new pot twice and got constant burn notices and gave up both times as the taste was awful. I think this recipe needs to be reworked and revised to avoid the burn notice problem that seems to happen to many.
What a great recipe, thanks! For anyone who asked for Instant Pot accessories, check out this Amazon store – https://www.amazon.com/stores/page/5D3A3870-EC30-411C-A4D5-F574FBF9B4A3
