Pressure Cooker Pulled Pork Recipe

Pulled pork is one of those foods you can have any time of year. However, it can heat up the house when you have to cook it for a long time in the oven. That is when it is handy to have a pressure cooker pulled pork recipe on hand.

It will cut your cooking time by half if not even more! Plus I think it comes out even more tender and juicy than when you make it in the oven.

You have to love it when you can just toss something in to cook and walk away without having to watch it! 

While pressure cooker pulled pork can be served lots of ways such as on tacos, in casseroles, enchiladas, and other things. One of the best ways to enjoy it is on a pulled pork sandwich.

Serve on a bun with some extra BBQ sauce. I love to top mine with a little coleslaw too. Something about the sweet and tangy slaw just mixes really well with BBQ sauce and pulled pork.

This recipe was made in the Instant Pot. But you could make it in just about any electric pressure cooker. They pretty much all have just about the same features when it comes to pressure cooking.
