Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 3 pounds boneless pork shoulder cut in half
- ⅓ cup water
- ⅓ cup pineapple juice
- ⅓ cup low sodium chicken broth
- ¼ cup ketchup
- ¼ cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon minced ginger
- ½ teaspoon chili powder
- ½ cup pineapple chunks
Instructions
- Turn on Instant Pot and select SAUTE. Add olive oil and when it's warm, add in the chunks of pork. Cook for 3 minutes on each side. Remove from pot.
- Add in the water and deglaze the pot by using a wooden spoon to scrape up the bits stuck to the bottom. Turn off.
- Mix the pineapple juice, chicken broth, ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, minced garlic, minced ginger and chili powder in a bowl to make the Hawaiian mixture. Add to bottom of pot with the water, and give it a stir.
- Add the pork back into the pot, followed by the pineapple chunks.
- Close the Instant Pot, and turn the valve on top to "SEALING." Select HIGH PRESSURE for 60 minutes and let the pork cook.
- After the cook time is complete let the pressure naturally release for 10 minutes before quick releasing the rest of the pressure.
- Remove the pork pieces from the Instant Pot, transfer to a cutting board or wide plate and shred.
- Place shredded pork in a serving bowl and add some of the cooking liquid so it remains juicy.
- Serve on buns with coleslaw, or make a pulled pork bowl with more pineapple chunks and slaw.
