2 Reasons to Use a Slow Cooker Over An Instant Pot For Making Keto Pot Roasts

While I’m a big fan of using my Instant Pot to make some truly yummy keto dinners, there are certain times when it’s definitely preferable to stick with an old fashioned slow cooker. Here are just a couple of reasons why:

Mouthwateringly tender. Using a slow cooker to cook your meat and vegetables will result in an incredibly tender meal that falls apart effortlessly on your fork. On the other hand, using an Instant Pot tends to give your veggies a more ‘steamed’ finish.
Easier to use. One of the biggest reasons why I love my Instant Pot is because it’s so versatile; it seemingly has a setting for everything. However, that can admittedly be off-putting for some people, who much prefer the old fashioned simplicity that a slow cooker can provide.

Can I Freeze Keto Mississippi Pot Roast?

Good news – this keto Mississippi pot roast freezes incredibly well.

If you’re planning on freezing your leftovers, you’ll first want to make sure that you allow them to cool completely. You can then divide the meat and veggies amongst a few freezer-safe airtight containers.

You can also pour in some broth in each container to freeze along with the meat and veggies, but just make sure that you leave an inch or two of space near the top, as the liquids will expand once they freeze.
