Pressure Cooker Pork Roast

Ingredients to Kick Off the Fun!

  • 3-4 pounds of pork roast (shoulder or butt work like a charm)
  • 1 tablespoon of salt (or to taste – we’re not here to judge!)
  • 1 teaspoon of black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil (or any oil you have hanging around)
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced (because garlic makes everything better)
  • 1 cup of chicken or vegetable broth (or whatever broth is lounging in your pantry)
  • 1 tablespoon of soy sauce (to add a bit of flair)
  • 2 teaspoons of dried thyme (or the herb of your choice)
  • Optional: veggies like carrots and potatoes if you feel like it!

Let’s Get Cooking!

  1. First things first, pat that pork roast dry and give it a rubdown with salt and pepper. Let’s make sure it’s as seasoned as your grandma’s wise sayings!
  2. In your pressure cooker, heat the olive oil on the sauté setting. Once it’s hot and ready, sear that pork for about 4-5 minutes on all sides until it’s gloriously browned. Yes, we want it to look as good as it tastes!
  3. Once the pork is all browned, throw in the chopped onion and minced garlic. Let them mingle and get to know each other for about 2 minutes. We want flavors to party!
  4. Add in the broth, soy sauce, and thyme. Scrape the bottom of the pot because those tasty bits are simply magical!
  5. Place the pork back in the pot, ensuring it’s nestled nicely in all that liquid. If you’re using veggies, toss them in now!
  6. Now, seal the pressure cooker lid and set it to cook on high pressure for about 60 minutes (time flies when you’re cooking!).
  7. Once the timer goes off, don’t rush to release the pressure – let it naturally release for about 15 minutes to ensure that the pork is tender and juicy.
  8. Carefully open the lid, and behold the wonder that awaits you. Shred the pork with two forks (it should fall apart like a heartwarming movie plot), and mix it with all the luscious juices.

And there you have it! A scrumptious Pressure Cooker Pork Roast that’s sure to impress. Serve it up and enjoy the adoration of your family and friends. Happy cooking!
