Ingredients:
- chicken broth
- boneless Pork Shoulder Chuck Roast
- Salt
- Worcestershire sauce
- Black Pepper
- large onion
- minced garlic – You can also use garlic powder.
- your favorite BBQ Sauce – Try this easy homemade barbecue sauce or we also like Stubb’s Sticky Sweet.
HOW DO YOU MAKE PULLED PORK?
1. First, put all of the ingredients in the instant pot. We have an 8 quart Instant pot and love it. Go ahead and put the lid on and turn the value to sealing.
2. Second, set the pressure for 90 minutes on high.
3. Do a quick release and remove the lid.
4. Finally, it is time to shred the pork. It is going to be really tender and everyone will think that you slow cooked it.
You can use two forks and the pork will shred really easily. I like to use my hand mixer and you can shred the entire thing in very little time. I use this trick on chicken too. Give it a try!
Stir in more bbq sauce if desired. I like it a little saucy so we normally add more but this is up to you and your preference.
What is the best cut of meat for pulled pork?
We used a pork shoulder chuck roast this time but I have also used a pork loin before. Honestly, I often just use what is on sale or I already have in the freezer.
What to serve with Instant pot BBQ pork
We love it on rolls or hamburger buns and topped with the Best Coleslaw Recipe. Serve it with Lazy Day Crock Pot Baked Beans and Corn on the Cob and dinner is complete! We have even just served it with potato chips on busy nights.
They also make delicious sliders for parties or game day when you want a smaller portion. This recipe is a keeper and so versatile. Check out Best Sides for Pulled Pork Sandwiches for more ideas.
Tips for instant pot bbq pork:
- You can use a fat separator if you want to easily dispose of the excess grease. This will allow you to quickly and easily separate the fat from the bbq sauce. Whenever I am cooking liquid, I use one of these. Just set it aside and you can do it less than 15 minutes.
- Freeze it! If you have any leftovers, just freeze and you will have a quick lunch or dinner ready and waiting. Sometimes I will make extra just so I know I will have enough to freeze! It’s so nice having a few containers of this in the freezer.
- Also, this pork is so tender that it easily falls apart. You can use two forks but I like to use my hand mixer to shred the meat. It’s very quick and easy. If you haven’t tried this before, it’s so simple.

Yes, I agree!
This recipe is amazing! I totally think the cole slaw topping makes it that way!
You can make this recipe in the crock pot as well. You can find this recipe here.
what if you don’t have a pressure cooker what can you use in place of a pressure cooker
How much time would I add if the roast is frozen?
Thanks!
Do you have any suggestion for the 3 quart instant pot???
How can we modify your large meals for two people???
Joanne, I would start with 45 minutes and check it from there. If it’s not shredding easily, I would cook it longer. Thanks.
This looks great. Would you adjust the time for a smaller roast? Say 3#?
Thanks.
Kate – I have updated the recipe card to correct the cooking time. The 90 minutes on high pressure is the correct time. These roasts take longer to cook in the instant pot since they are larger. Thank you!
I am just curious about the cooking time. It is listed at 10 minutes but then in the directions it says to cook at high pressure for 90 minutes. Is that supposed to be “9” minutes?
