Instant Pot Pulled Pork
- Turn on the Instant Pot (plug it in) and press the "SAUTE" setting. Add oil. Once hot, add the seasoned pork pieces and brown on all sides. You may have to do this in batches.
- Place the extra pieces of browned pork in a baking dish while you brown other pieces.
- Once all the pieces are browned, add them back into the Instant Pot and cover with all but 1 cup of Dr Pepper BBQ Sauce.
- Close and lock the lid. Move the seal to the “Sealing” position. Press “Pressure Cook” and set the Pressure level to High Pressure, and change the time to 45 minutes. It will take a few minutes for the Instant Pot to come up to the pressure level before it starts to cook.
- After it has finished cooking for 45 minutes, let the Instant Pot release pressure naturally for about 15 minutes and then do a quick release.
- Remove pork from Instant Pot to a large bowl. With 2 forks shred pork. Stir in remaining bbq sauce. Serve on buns or tortillas.
