I bet I can guess – an Instant Pot. They are all the rage right now and with good reason. I’m pretty obsessed with mine! I used it to whip up these pressure cooker carnitas in less than an hour. That’s some sort of miracle if you ask me!

Once the pin has dropped and the pressure has released, you’ll shred the meat and pop it onto a cookie sheet. These crisp up beautifully under the broiler in no time at all.

Pressure cooker carnitas are ready in less than half the time it takes for the traditional stove top version!

INGREDIENTS

1 package Smithfield Boneless Pork Shoulder Seasoned Carnitas about 2 1/2 pounds
1 1/2 cups orange juice
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 lime
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro

INSTRUCTIONS

Cut the pork shoulder into 2 inch cubes and place in the pot of an electric pressure cooker.
Cover with the orange juice and brown sugar. Close lid and set vent to sealing.
Cook on high pressure for 27 minutes. Let pressure release naturally, about 15 minutes.
Remove the pork from the liquid and shred with two forks.
Place meat on a metal cookie sheet and squeeze lime juice over the top of the meat. Sprinkle with salt.
Place under the broiler until meat is crisp on the edges, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Sprinkle meat with cilantro and serve as a filling for tacos, in a burrito, or over rice.
