I was whipping up some Cheesy BBQ Pork Sliders for the guys in the field on a warm day and I didn’t want to turn the oven on to heat my house. Instead of roasting my pork in the oven, I added it to my Instant Pot with some broth and BBQ sauce. I was able to set it and forget it and it resulted in amazingly tender and flavorful pork perfect for sandwiches!

    Question: which cut of pork do you use for this recipe? Is loin too lean?

      Any roast is fine, but a loin won’t work for shredding.

    Do you use the meat/stew setting or just manual?

    only made one think in ip so this may be a silly question, but can I put the roast directly into the liquid in the pan or does it need to sit on top of rack thing/trivet(?) that came with it?

      I put the roast right on the bottom of the pan with the liquid and it turned out great!

    Thank you for this recipe! This was the first dish I cooked in my IP, and it turned out perfect. I used a 4.5 lb roast cut into two pieces, and it was falling apart as I was lifting it out of the IP. I had thrown some carrots and potatoes in with the roast, and they were perfect, also. I put the IP on Saute, and reduced the sauce until it was concentrated – super good.

    I thought something was wrong at first, because right before the IP reached the correct pressure it displayed “BURN,” but it went on with the program and smelled normal. There were no burnt marks in the IP or on the pork at the end, so I don’t know what caused that error code. I’ll have to keep an eye on it.

    Is the first time I have used my pressure cooker. I cooked a 3 lb pork butt for 70 minutes. the flavor of the meat is wonderful and the part that I could Shred came out great. But there was a little bit of the meat that came out like rubber. I don’t think the 70 minutes on the pork setting was correct. I may have misunderstood the recipe because I did not pick high pressure I went ahead and use a preset and that may not have been high enough. I am definitely going to do this again Because the part that came out good is really good.

    Isn’t the pressure cooker the best thing that ever happened to Pulled Pork? The time saving over a slow cooker is amazing.

    Made this in my 6qt & it was good. I’m making 10-12 lbs of pulled pork for Christmas and wondering if I can double the meat in my 6qt. Would the water,sauce & time stay the same if this can be done?

      I haven’t tested it this way, but I would add a little more sauce but keep the same time. If it isnt done you can always cook it longer!
