Ingredients

• 3 lbs Pork shoulder (boneless, trimmed)
• 2 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tsp Paprika
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 tsp Onion powder
• 2 tbsp Brown sugar
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 cup Chicken broth
• 1 cup Barbecue sauce
• 2 tbsp Apple cider vinegar

Directions

Step 1

Cut the pork shoulder into 3-4 large chunks to ensure it fits into the pressure cooker.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together the salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and brown sugar to create a spice rub.

Step 3

Rub the spice mixture all over the pork chunks, ensuring they are evenly coated.

Step 4

Set the Wolfgang Puck Pressure Cooker to the 'Sauté' mode and add the olive oil. Allow the oil to heat for 1-2 minutes.

Step 5

Sear the pork chunks in the pressure cooker, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides (about 5 minutes total). Work in batches if necessary.

Step 6

Once browned, remove the pork and set it aside. Turn off the 'Sauté' mode.

Step 7

Pour the chicken broth into the pressure cooker and scrape the bottom with a wooden spoon to deglaze the pot, loosening any browned bits.

Step 8

Add the barbecue sauce and apple cider vinegar to the broth, stirring to combine.

Step 9

Return the browned pork to the pressure cooker, nestling the pieces into the liquid.

Step 10

Close and lock the pressure cooker lid, ensuring the valve is set to the 'Sealing' position. Select the 'Meat' setting and set the timer for 60 minutes.

Step 11

Once the cooking time is complete, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then carefully perform a quick release for any remaining pressure.

Step 12

Open the lid and use tongs to transfer the pork to a large bowl. Use two forks to shred the pork into fine pieces.

Step 13

Switch the pressure cooker back to the 'Sauté' mode and simmer the cooking liquid for 5-7 minutes or until slightly thickened.

Step 14

Return the shredded pork to the pressure cooker and stir to coat it evenly in the sauce.

Step 15

Serve the pulled pork hot on buns, in tacos, or as a main dish with sides. Enjoy!
