Bob's Red Mill Organic Quick Cooking Steel Cut Oats, 22oz (Pack of 4) - Organic, Non GMO, Whole Grain, Vegan, Kosher

My heart doctor recommended steel cut oats after I had heart failure. I tried a few brands, but Bob's is the best. The four pack is a great bargain compared to single bag price at the store. Good thing to get addicted to- only takes about 7-8 minutes to make.

Best instant oatmeal so far. Quick, tasty and easy to prepare. Add nearly anything with it for both flavor and taste.

Quaker has been declining in quality during my 12 years of consuming Steel Cut Quick Oats. Decided to try Bob’s Red Mill. Better consistency and taste. Pleased with the change. Don’t like the price but you get what you pay for.

I've cooked Bob's Quick Steel Cut Oats now for over a year, most every morning for breakfast and they cook up in about 7-8 min. I add a touch of salt and often cook them with raisins. As soon as they start to stick on the bottom of the pan they are ready to eat. Once in my bowl I may add fruit, milk, nuts, jam...a perfect start to my day. It's thanks to my father that I know about Bob's Quick Steel Cut Oats!

I've been buying these for a while now. I would agree with other reviews that trying to make them in 7 minutes is probably not ideal, but it can be done. I prefer to make these in a rice cooker, Zojirushi brand, that has a steel cut oats setting on it. Set it up the night before and program it to have the oats cooked the next morning.

I purchased this brand of oats twice so far. First batch were great, cooked through pretty quickly, as advertised, and were creamy and yummy. Second batch not so much. Why? Because I bought the steel cut oats instead of the rolled oats. I waited until I used every bag in the pack, to make sure this wasn’t just a one bag mishap. Every bag in the steel cut batch contained oats that took *forever* to cook. First bowl I heated them in the microwave for 3 min like I did with the rolled ones, but they came out practically uncooked. I microwaved them for another 5 mins - with breaks and adding more and more water every 1-2 min in between, as the oaks were soaking in much more liquid than in the instructions. But the oats were still not soft enough, so after microwaving them I added boiling water and let them sit for 30 min until they finally softened while still soaking. So now I cook them by pouring boiling water on them, on a 3 to 1 ratio, I let them sit for 10 min, then I microwave them for 3 min, with breaks to avoid overspills. Then I add more boiling water and let them sit, cause they keep soaking while they cool down and would otherwise turn into a hard mess. If I want a quick breakfast I pour the hot water on them at night and leave them in a covered glass container in the fridge overnight, and in the morning I add some milk and heat them for 2 min stirring them mid-time. The only other cooking choice I figured is boiling them on the stove, but it takes forever and you have to stand by them the whole time to mix them, so that’s a “no” for me. Definitely these aren’t quick cooking oats, more like regular ones. My advice: if you wan truly quick cooking oats get the rolled type. If you get the steel cut expect to spend a lot of time cooking them into an edible dish.

Absolutely hands-down my favorite oatmeal. All the other brands of steel cut oats have a weird flavor and don't cook up the same (even if they claim to be quick-cooking). I refuse to use any other brand. I highly prefer the quick-cooking since I can make it at work in the microwave, but when I can't find it, I use the regular kind of the same brand that you cook on the stove. A bowl of this holds me very well until lunch, and sometimes a bit more!

Bob's Red Mill products are always great. Everything they sell is good.

I love the chewiness of these oats. Takes a while to soak and cook but live the texture and taste
