Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, minced onion, breadcrumbs, seasonings, eggs, and heavy cream. Using your hands, combine ingredients completely until thoroughly mixed.
- Roll mixture into 1-inch sized meatballs, packing tightly. Set aside until all the mixture is used. You should be able to make about 75 meatballs.
- Add butter to bottom of Instant Pot. Turn on saute. When butter is melted, add one layer of meatballs, cooking about 3 minutes on each side. (They may not be all the way cooked inside, that's okay). Remove cooked meatballs onto a plate and repeat with another layer of meatballs.
- When all the meatballs are partially cooked, add the beef broth to the pot. Using a wooden spoon, scrape up any bits and pieces that are stuck to the bottom of the pan. This technique is called "deglazing" and it reduces the burn notice tendencies.
- Turn off Instant Pot. Return the meatballs to the pot into the beef broth. Sprinkle with 1/2 tsp allspice, and 1/2 tsp kosher salt.
- Secure the lid and make sure the valve is set to "SEALING."
- Select HIGH PRESSURE and a cook time of 5 minutes. When cook time ends, allow to naturally release for 10 minutes.
- While the meatballs are cooking, in a small bowl whisk together flour and water until smooth. Set aside.
- After the ten minute natural release of pressure, turn the valve to "VENTING" and allow the remaining pressure to release. Open the lid.
- Turn the Instant Pot on saute, and add in the heavy whipping cream, flour mixture, 1/2 tsp allspice, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Stir until thickened. This will take about 3-4 minutes.
- Turn off and add fresh parsley.
- Serve over mashed potatoes or egg noodles!

Notes
- This recipe was tested in a 6 quart Instapot. Results will not be the same in other size pots or pressure cookers.
- I used a combination of beef and pork here. If you prefer, you can swap it for all pork or all beef.
- Make sure not to skip the deglazing step! Any bits of meat or spice left on the pot before pressure cooking are likely to cause a burn notice.
