Sorry for the delay. I couldn't visualize how many pounds was a bunch of asparagus. I can tell you that it fits 4 large ears of corn standing upright and with a little room to spare. I love this kitchen item!

I have cooked as much as 6 pounds of potatoes and a 7-pound roast in these pans, so I would expect that each pan could hold at least 6 pounds.

I cooked a 2.5 lb roast however, it could accommodate a much larger roast. You just need to be careful the roast does not touch the burner elements in the back of the unit.

Very handy pot. Could use two but have to settle for the one. I mostly boil eggs...it is so easy and fast. If I ate asparagus alot I would probably use it for it. I love my pot. I think I will try boiling potatoes next time.

Absolutely I have cooked rump roasts, beef brisket and eight pound turkey breast in this slow cooker with vegetables. I think there is more room in this rhan my round slow cooker. Highly recommend. Enough room for 3 or 4 people I would say. Hope this helps.

My recipe calls for 1 1/2 lbs and it is perfect. You could probably do 1 3/4.

No, I don't even think you could do half a pound. This same company sells a griddle. You might could do half a pound on it.

We cook approximately 10 mins per pound. If you leave the lid off, the skin won't get as burnt.

We just cook a pound at a time. Don't have to break the spaghetti. We are only 2 people. I am sure you could cook more but 1 lb does great.

Depending on thickness 10 minutes on one side and about 7 minutes on second side it medium rare !!! Cook HOT

it depends on your quantity also.1 cup say 4oz of beans need to be soaked overnight and 2 liter cooker will be quite small for that.you need 4 cups of 3oz minimum water.but I won't recommend cooking more then that or it will spill.if you just want for salad no gravey then you must soak it overnight with pich of baking soda.boil them with enough water without the pressure and then after 20 mints cover it with pressure cooker.it will take 30 mints on medium flame. un soaked beans is not good idea to cook as it might spoil the gasket and the air pressure switch.you must soak them in hot water for minimum 20 mints with baking soda.still will suggest you to do everything on bigger pressure cooker at least 4 liter.check you tube also for further help.

Depends on the gas pressure. About one inch at one pound. Half at 10 pounds.

I've cooked whole chickens, beef and pork roasts in the pressure cooker all weighing over 3 lbs. Just make sure it doesn't fill the pan more than 2/3 full to allow it to steam. I recently cooked a turkey breast weighing over 5 lbs., however I did have to remove the backbone before I could fit it in the pressure cooker. Since I slow cooked the turkey breast instead of pressure cooking it, I didn't have to worry about how full it was. I came out juicy and tender. Soo good!

I have only cooked the 3 1/2 lb type of chicken.....I am sure you could go larger for one chicken at a time. If you do two chickens I would stick to the 3 1/2lb type.

Celery might be tough unless you're willing to cut it to shorter length. I do that since mostly celerity goes for snacking in my house. I haven't tried asparagus but I bet it would work. I would just suggest cutting the stems fresh when you get home; not only would they fit better but they would have better moisture uptake.
