Ingredients
1tablespoonoil
1tablespoonsaltaccording to taste
4poundspork shoulder roastcut into 4 equal pieces (we used a steak ready boneless pork shoulder cut, and we cut 4 lb off the bone (small bone) and saved the rest)
1 ½ - 2 cupsbarbecue sauce2 for really saucy
To Serve
8hamburger bunssplit and toasted
2tablespoonsbutteror as needed
coleslaw
Instructions
Heat oil in Instant Pot over sauté mode. Add pork and brown on each side, turning. Top pork with salt and barbecue sauce.
Cover the ingredients and secure IP lid into the locking position. Cook on Manual High 40 minutes. Let the steam naturally release for ten minutes, then open the lid and shred (way easier to shred with two forks).
Turn on sauté mode to absorb barbecue sauce. Serve as desired! We served this pulled pork with hamburger buns, coleslaw, and butter. Toast buns in the oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about five minutes or until they have a nice golden color.
Notes
Be sure to cut the roast into 4 pieces.
Shred the pulled pork with two forks.
For Whole30, keto, paleo, or low-carb options, use compliant barbecue sauce.
