Even though we're big champions of yearround, all-weather grilling, we don't always have the time to cook a pork shoulder low-and-slow. Recreate the same fall-apart tender pulled pork in your pressure cooker in a fraction of the time, and still get that smoky savory flavor you love.
Easy Pressure Cooker BBQ Pulled Pork
Difficulty: Easy
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 90 minutes
Serves: 4-6
Ingredients: |
|
|
4 lbs. |
Pork Shoulder, bone-in |
|
TT |
Kosher Salt & Pepper |
| TT | Notorious P.I.G. Pulled Pork Rub |
| 2 T | Olive Oil |
| 1 1/2 cups | Bourbon Barrel BBQ Sauce |
| 3/4 cup | Water |
| 1/2 | Yellow Onion, sliced |
Instructions:
- Season the pork shoulder with Notorious P.I.G. Rub, salt & pepper
- Select “Saute” to preheat the pressure cooking pot. When hot, add the oil to the cooking pot. Add the pork shoulder and sear 2 to 3 minutes per side to brown, then remove and set aside.
- To the pot, stir in 1 cup of Bourbon Barrel and water, then return the pork and top with sliced onions and remaining ½ cup of Bourbon Barrel.
- Lock the lid in place. Select High Pressure. Set the cook time to 70 minutes. When the cook time ends, turn off the pressure cooker, and allow the pressure to release naturally (typically allow 15 to 20 minutes).
- Once the valve has dropped, carefully remove the lid, and pull the pork apart with tongs. Serve warm with braising liquid, and additional Bourbon Barrel.
