How to cook sorghum that isn't getting tender in a soup?
I added sorghum to a soup I was making and boiled it all for about 20 minutes longer and it is still not fully cooked. Would putting it in a pressure cooker or slow cooker help it to finish cooking?

Both the pressure cooker and slow cooker will get you to the finish line as well.
While it's too late for this batch next time soak the sorghum in advance to reduce the cooking time. Another option would be to parcook the sorghum (maybe 30-40 minutes) and then finish cooking in the soup.
Best of luck.
Note that in a slow cooker the sorghum would take 4-5 hours (maybe even longer depending on the device setting).
If you want fast sorghum, presoak and cook in a pressure cooker. I don't own a pressure cooker myself but a judicious web search (using a search engine, one of those things people don't really use anymore) will uncover some guidance on how long sorghum needs in a pressure cooker.
Anyhow I knew it would eventually get there. Hope you enjoy it!
