A good hearty meal for the snow!!!

I used my Cuisinart Digital Pressure Cooker again last night!  I made a good old-fashion meal of Pintos and Cornbread and it was delicious!  This pressure cooker is so amazing that my meal was cooked in 35 minutes from dried (not even pre-soaked) beans!  I added a quart of beef stock that I drained from the pressure cooker from a previous meal and it was heavenly!  I threw in 3 small pieces of neck bone with meat which simply fell off the bone.  It was so tender!  My cornbread was easily made with self-rising cornbread mix right out of the bag.  All I did was throw in some reserved bacon fat to season my cast iron skillet.  I salt and peppered the mixture to taste since I find plain cornbread rather dull.  The meal turned out to be so filling and satisfying that noone could move from the couch for a full 2 hours!  I recommend trying this on a cold and snowy day!  It will make you feel toasty all the way to your toes!
