Elevate your pulled pork game with a fusion of Asian-inspired flavors, effortlessly made in your Instant Pot.
Ingredients:
  • 3.5 pounds boneless pork shoulder, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup chopped mushrooms
  • 0.5 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 0.33333334326744 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced ginger
  • 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder
  • 2.5 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 0.125 cup cold water
  • 0.25 cup chopped green onions
Instructions:
  • In a multi-functional pressure cooker like the Instant Pot, mix together pork, beef broth, mushrooms, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, honey, garlic, sesame oil, ginger, red pepper, and Chinese five-spice powder. Seal the lid shut securely.
  • Follow manufacturer's instructions to set Instant Pot to high pressure. Set timer for 35 minutes and allow pressure to build for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Allow the pressure cooker to rest for 15 minutes, then carefully release any remaining pressure following the manufacturer's guidelines for about 10 minutes. Open the lid, use a slotted spoon to transfer the pork to a bowl, and set it aside.
  • Mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl, then pour into the pressure cooker. Press Saute and let it come to a boil, stirring until the sauce thickens, for about 3 minutes. Switch to Warm mode.
  • Use two forks to shred the pork until it is pulled apart, then combine it with the sauce. Finish by garnishing with green onions before serving.
