thick sauce trick: start with water on the bottom of the pot (a full cup), then add in your protein of choice and finally the thick sauce/liquid that floats on top of the protein. Do NOT stir. When its cooked simply stir it all together at the end.

its called cooking
the layering trick actually works but people also tend to forget about the sugar content in jar sauces. Sugar tends to char/scorch in the pot MUCH faster than homemade sauces. Check the label to see if it contains sugar (should be near the top of ingredients listed).

yes! sugar is a big factor people miss. Bbq sauce is the worst for this, chars to the bottom in 30 seconds at those temps.
must deglaze with a wooden spoon after sautéing the protein. If its stuck to the pot, scrape with spoon until smooth. Takes 20 seconds but saves the rest of the cooking.

does the pot get scratched with a metal spoon? I’m paranoid about the nonstick cooking surface but wooden spoon fails sometimes.

It’s stainless steel and there’s no coating to scratch. You can use whatever cooking implement you’d like. Metal whisk works great.
Worth noting that if the ingredients are cold and straight from the fridge and placed into the hot pot, the burner will flash error: burn. This is due to the difference in temperatures between the cold ingredients and the hot pot. Allow ingredients to reach room temperature or sauté prior to cooking.
my MIL just dumps everything into the pot raw, adds the can of tomatoes and sets it for 30 minutes. Never has a burn error. I follow the recipe to the letter and get burn error every other time I cook. I think the machines just hate me personally.

check your ring. Seriously. Make sure it’s not seated in the pot correctly. There’s a little tab that should line up with the pot. Might be your problem.
