Instructions
SAUTÉ THE BACON.
  1. Add the bacon (if using) to the inner cooking pot. Select Sauté and adjust the heat to Normal or Medium. Cook the bacon for 3 minutes on each side, until almost crisp. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel–lined plate to drain, then chop it into bite-size pieces. Drain the fat from the pot.
PRESSURE COOK.
  1. Return the bacon to the pot and add the kidney beans, pinto beans, great northern beans, water, ketchup, sugar, mustard, and chili powder. Lock the lid into place and turn the valve to “sealing.” Select Manual or Pressure Cook and adjust the pressure to High. Set the time for 8 minutes. When cooking ends, let the pressure release naturally for 15 minutes, then turn the valve to “venting” to quick release the remaining pressure. Unlock and remove the lid and stir well before serving.

    I am not good with recipes; I do basic. I have a 8 quart pot, want to cook only pinto beans. I have a 6 pound roast, I only want to cook, shred. Is there a directions for basic cook time for these kind of cooking. My insta-pot came with recipe book, descriptions, etc. No directions for example; “to yield 1 quart of cooked pinto beans, this much beans, this much water, this much time. Period.
