Instant Pot Café Rio Sweet Park
The best instant pot pork roast recipe is this sweet pork cooked in salsa, enchilada sauce, brown sugar and coke comes out sweet and tender for burritos or nachos.
Ingredients
- 3-4 lb boneless pork roast (plus salt and pepper for seasoning)
- 2 cups of mango salsa or mango peach salsa (can use different one but won’t be quite as sweet)
- 10-12 oz can red enchilada sauce
- 1-1/4 cups brown sugar
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2-1 tsp chili powder (depending on how spicy you want it)
- 12 oz can coke (prefer regular to diet)
Instructions
- Cut your pork roast in to large chunks. Season each piece all over generously with salt and pepper and place in your Instant Pot insert.
- Blend together the picante sauce, red enchilada sauce, brown sugar, garlic powder and chili powder till smooth. Stir in the coke. Pour the mixture over the top of the pork.
- Seal your Instant Pot and set the timer for *60 minutes. Let it come to pressure, cook for 60 minutes and naturally release pressure for a minimum of 15 minutes. (I usually put rice in my rice cooker during this time and then sit down and throw my feet up.)
- Use the quick release to make sure the pot is completely depressurized before removing the lid.
- Remove the pork from the sauce and shred the pork, (I use my Kitchen Aid with the beater paddle.) Add the pork back in to the sauce and serve!
Notes
*Notes: If you are using pork tenderloin, reduce your pressure cooking time to 45 minutes.
