Fantastic one hour pulled pork

Method

1. If using a pork roast, slice crossways into 3/4 inch thick pieces (they’ll resemble pork chops). Place the pork pieces or chops on a baking tray and rub all sides of the meat liberally with the dry rub. Set aside.
2. Make sauce by combining all ingredients in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, whisking occasionally. Let cook 2 minutes then remove from heat.
3. Heat 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of oil in an Instant Pot set to sauté or a pressure cooker place over / set to medium heat. Working in batches and adding more oil as needed, sear all the pork chops on both sides.
4. Return all the pork to the Instant Pot or pressure cooker and add 1 cup (250 mL) each of water and the prepared sauce, being sure not overfill your pot, per the manufacturer’s instructions.
5. Put the lid on the Instant Pot and set to manual high pressure for 40 minutes. If using a pressure cooker, follow the manufacturer’s instructions to bring the mixture to a boil over high heat then reduce heat, maintaining pressure, and cook for 40 minutes.
6. Allow the pot to slowly depressurize for 10 minutes then safely finish depressurizing the cooker completely and remove the lid. Remove the pork to a clean plate or baking tray and discard the liquid in the Instant Pot or pressure cooker.
7. To shred the meat, place it in the bowl of a stand mixer. With the regular paddle, stir the meat on a slow speed until it begins to fall apart, then increase speed and beat for 1 minute more until uniformly shredded. Alternatively, shred the cooked meat on a cutting board using two forks.
8. Place the shredded meat in a heatproof bowl or casserole dish and drizzle the reserved sauce over top; stir to combine.
9. The pulled pork can be prepared in advance and reheated gently in the microwave when ready to serve. It also freezes and reheats beautifully.
10. Serve on buns with your favourite side dishes (mine are coleslaw and potato salad).
