Cooking ideas from friends

We had beef chilli with baked potato for dinner. I cooked the chilli in the pressure cooker, it took twenty mins to cook so the chunks of meat was really tender, normally I would cook it for three hours perhaps. The potatoes cooked in the wood burning stove wrapped in foil.
Both were ideas from friends, I hadn't thought of actually cooking in the pressure cooker, I got it for canning/jarring which I have done a bit of, but not as much as I would like (when the house is done!). It is pretty big and although I made enough for tonight and four more meals (eight portions) it was only a few inches in the bottom of the pan.
