KOREAN PULLED PORK INSTANT POT RECIPES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper.
• Brush the pork with the liquid smoke and then roll in the bowl with the spices to coat. Set aside.
• Place the onion wedges in the Instant Pot, round sides down. Add the soda and lay the pork pieces on top of the onion.
• Secure the lid, move the valve to the sealing position, and hit Manual or Pressure Cook on High Pressure for 60 minutes. When done, allow a 10-minute natural release, followed by a quick release.
• Transfer the pork and onion to a mixing bowl. Reserve 1/4 cup of the juices from the pot and discard the rest.
• Shred the pork and onion with a pair of forks or a hand mixer, and mix in the reserved juices and barbecue sauce before serving with some slaw in rolls or buns.

Steps:

• Pour the cider into cooker. Mix the smoked paprika, brown sugar, chile powder, dried mustard, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Pat and rub this mixture all over the pork. Set the meat in the cooker and lock the lid onto the pot.
• Option 1 - Max Pressure Cooker  Set the cooker to 'Pressure Cooker', on MAX level and set for 1 hour with the Keep Warm setting off.
• Option 2 - All Pressure Cookers  Set the cooker to 'Meat/Stew or Pressure Cook (Manual)' on High pressure for 1 hour and 20 minutes with the Keep Warm setting off.
• Option 3 - Slow Cook Option  Set the cooker to 'Slow Cook' on High for 5 hours with the Keep Warm setting off. (or on for no more than 4 hours)
• If you’ve used a pressure setting, once the machine has finished cooking, turn it off and allow its pressure to return to normal naturally, about 30 minutes.
• Unlatch the lid ad open the pot. Use a meat fork and a large, slotted spoon or a large spatula to transfer the pork to a nearby cutting board (or transfer hunks of the pork, should the thing come apart). Use a flatware tablespoon to skim any excess surface fat from the sauce.
• Press Saute and set the time for 10 minutes.
• Bring the sauce to a boil, stirring a few times. Cook until the sauce has reduced to about half its volume, stirring occasionally, about 7 minutes. Meanwhile, shred the meat with two forks. When the sauce has reduced to the right consistency, turn off the SAUTE function and stir the shredded meat into the sauce in the pot. Set aside for 5 minutes with the lid on top but askew to blend the flavors and let the meat further absorb the sauce.
