    Just a heads-up...generally when cooking meats in the pressure cooker, most recipes suggest a natural pressure release of 10-15 minutes (followed by a quick release for any last bit of pressure) instead of just the quick release, because according to the IP company, a quick release can cause meat to seize up. The extra release time will also help the meat be more tender around the bone.

    I heavily brown my pork in a cast iron skillet before putting it in the pressure cooker, and make a rub with smoked paprika for smoky flavor, brown sugar and aged balsamic vinegar plus + other spices/sauces (whatever I feel like), that I apply after browning, I also deglaze the cast iron with a little bit of Rum and pour that with some beef stock over the meat. (Nothing like slow smoked pulled pork, but pretty darn good for 2h of effort)

    • @SkullandMortar
      @SkullandMortar  Год назад +3

      I'd definitely brown in a cast iron first next time. For this recipe I followed the Instantpot method they suggested. I don't think it was bad and I'd like to give it another shot. Thanks for watching.

    The reason I pressure cook is for quick mass meal prep, but when i reheat my pulled pork, I pan fry it, often add similar seasonings that are in carnitas. I think crisping them up in a pan is an essential to add texture.

    • @SkullandMortar

    When you’re cooking any meat in a pressure cooker or in the oven it’s not gonna come out like on our smokers guys. It’s just not going to, but I need you to realize that when you cook any meats in the pressure cooker you need to if you’re making pulled pork, for example, shred the meat put it on the baking sheet like he did add more spices that you used. And barbecue sauce on it put it in the oven 400° for about a half an hour or under the broiler 10 to 15 minutes at the most-it will come out way better trust me🤫✌️🤔🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺

    It looks and tastes like that because you watered it down by immersing it in the beef broth. You should have just used your rub and sauce and put it on a stand in the cooker so that it's not sitting in the water. It only needs like half a cup of water to build up the pressure. And after a natural release, take it out and broil it for 8minutes in the oven. Unless you're cooking a curry or a stew don't immerse your meats!

    Damn, I feel like you were set up for failure on this one. All the respect to your experience, but as someone who both smokes pulled pork and uses the Instant Pot, I have some experience to share. Instant Pot pulled pork will never be better than smoked, but I promise it can be much better than this. Try it again and do these things:
    1) Since you're not smoking it for 8+ hours where it has time to absorb the seasoning, season at least 12 hours before the sear.
    2) Pat dry beforehand for a better sear.
    3) It looks like the Instant Pot didn't get to full temp before you seared it. It's an easy mistake to make since it is a little confusing. If this combined with patting it dry doesn't get the sear you want, just bust out the cast iron. Who cares.
    4) Use a little bit of apple cider vinegar to scrape the bits off the bottom so it gets added to the flavor.
    5) Add a tsp or so of liquid smoke to the liquid before pressure cooking. This is 100% cheating and feels wrong, but your mouth won't care.
    6) I can't say for sure but it looks like you cooked it too long judging by how much pork there was. Pork should be fully cooked at 15 minutes per pound. You can go less than 15 minutes per pound if you follow the next step.
    7) Let it do a 10-15 minute slow release (when the timer is done and it counts up). This will keep the meat from tightening up like others have said.

      I can’t agree more about searing the roast, adds so much flavor. I set my IP to *sauté* and sear my roast inside the IP, for the exact reason you mentioned with the Iron Skillet, get all those crispy, meaty bits that add so much flavor. You know, it might be time to create an aftermarket cast iron bottomed insert for the IP, you would make millions!

    Part of the cooking happens in a natural pressure release of 15 minutes or so. But FYI, if part of it isn’t done enough, just pop it back in the Instant Pot, make sure there’s at least a cup of liquid, and bring it back to pressure. But to give it a 5 out of 10, due to cook error, seems a bit unfair 🤷🏻‍♀️

    after your sear, the meat deglazes the instant pot and gets the bits of the bottom of the pot it adds flavor add a little bit of broth to do that.. also double the seasoning and add liquid smoke. Thats my tips also let it sit and de pressure natural will help with the meat being more tender.

    @douglassequeira5419 12 дней назад

    When you use any pressure cooker, moisture and liquid is the main component in the cooking process. So you are not going to have it look like it came out of a smoker or taste like it either.
    What you do is remove the meat from the cooker and condense the liquid in the insta pot down to a thickened consistency like a sauce. Hopefully if you used the good stuff and great spices it will taste real good. Then you panfry your meat to just reduce the moisture and crisp it up a bit. Finally add the sauce on the side like a dipping sauce or pour it ontop and it will taste great.

  • @vitaly6312

    I tend to get some decent searing on mine. I generally do smaller chunks. This helps with overall tenderness.
    In terms of a bark, that’s to be expected since this is a braise and not a roast. Any braised meat will tend to either not get a bark or lose a bark if it’s braised.

    Natural pressure release is better & easier, you can also reduce the cook time to around 40 mins with a 20 min natural release. You also need to add sauce & stir through as it cools down. As a quick cooked protein source its excellent, you can always toss it in the smoker for 30 mins to add that smoke flavour, or add some liquid smoke to the sauce stir through.

    Your first mistake was not cooking it long enough. Your second mistake was releasing the pressure. This causes the meat to seize back up. Always let the pressure cooker release the steam on it’s own. This could take up to an hour, but we’ll worth the wait.

    Do it in a rice cooker instead. The steam in the rice cooker permeates it so the bone actually falls out of the meat and the meat is so tender that it easily crumbles into those perfect pulled pork shredded strips.
    Also. You should have shredded the meat while it was still in the pot with all the sauce, rub and beef stock then stirred up to pick up all the flavor.
    Why the hell would you leave all that flavor behind in the pot?
