INSTRUCTION MANUAL & RECIPES
MODEL PDPC8

Meet Paula Deen
Culinary icon Paula Deen
is a self-made entrepreneur who
learned her savory secrets from
her grandmother. She started
her career in the food industry
with a small catering company
called The Bag Lady, but
business quickly outgrew her
home kitchen. Taking a leap of
faith, she opened her first
restaurant, The Lady and Sons,
which has since become a
tourist hot spot in Savannah,
GA. With her huge personality,
delectable recipes and heart of
gold, Paula next found herself in
talks with TV execs after a friend
introduced her to some
influential people in the
business. The rest, as they say,
is history.
In addition to her television
success, Paula has sold more
than 11,000,000 copies of her
14 cookbooks and launched the
Paula Deen Network, an
interactive digital portal that
combines cooking, lifestyle and
game shows with great recipes,
meal-planning tools and more.

It’s%no%surprise%that%I%am%a%busy%woman,%so%I%have%always%loved%appliances%that%help%me%put%
a%delicious%dinner%on%the%table%quicker%than%usual.%With%kids,%work,%school,%and%social%
engagements%=illin’%up%our%calendars,%I%know%that%y’all%probably%feel%pretty%similar.%After%all,%
time%is%the%one%thing%we%can%never%get%more%of.%
%%
It’s%this%very%reason%that%pressure%cookers%have%long%held%a%special%place%in%my%kitchen,%and%
in%the%kitchens%of%my%mama,%grandmothers,%Aunt%Peggy,%and,%really,%all%the%women%in%my%
family.%You%know,%pressure%cookers,%though%often%thought%of%as%an%oldBfashioned%tool,%are%
just%as%useful%today%as%they%ever%were,%thanks%to%our%increased%drive%to%have%it%all.%They%use%
builtBup%steam%to%cook%food%faster,%and%not%only%do%we%all%love%the%word%“fast”,%but%they%also%
have%been%proven%to%preserve%the%nutrients%in%what%we’re%cooking%better.%Faster%and%
healthier?%It%sounds%like%a%dream,%doesn’t%it?%
There%are%plenty%of%other%reasons%to%love%cooking%with%pressure%cookers.%PressureBcooking%
saves%energy%and%prep%time%since%oneBpot%pressure%cooker%meals%use%less%burners%for%less%
time.%Plus,%there’s%less%cleanup%from%splashes%and%splatters%that%occur%from%open%pots.%And%
down%here%in%Savannah,%perhaps%one%of%the%best%reasons%is%that%it%traps%the%steam%and%heat%
in%the%pot%instead%of%letting%it%into%the%air,%which%is%perfect%for%hot,%humid%summers.%
Of%course,%my%brandBnew%pressure%cooker%ain’t%your%mama’s%pressure%cooker.%Not%only%is%it%
larger%than%most%at%8%quarts,%but%my%Paula%Deen%Pressure%Cooker%is%also%an%electric%pressure%
cooker.%However,%unlike%most%electric%presser%cookers%that%are%digital%and%preBprogrammed,%
