Thanks to our friends at CrockPot for sending this great Exress CrockPot so we could cook up one of our fav new Quick Recipes! With all the flavors of a slow cooker in a fraction of the time, this appliance is a game changer! We made a seriously good, perfectly tender and flavorful pulled pork in about an hour. While it was cooking we had time to whip up a Simply Homemade Apple Coleslaw to pair it with.
- 2 lbs Pork Loin
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
- Salt + Pepper
- 1 tbsp Garlic Powder
- 1 Onion, diced
- 6 oz Root Beer
- 2 cups BBQ Sauce (1 cup reserved)
- Crock Pot Express Pot (instant pot, pressure cooker)
-
Select the brown/saute button to preheat the pressure cooking pot and add oil. While the pot is heating up, heavily salt and pepper the pork.
-
When the pot is hot, add pork and brown pork on both sides, about 3-5 minutes per side.
-
Add diced onion, garlic powder, 1 cup BBQ sauce, 6oz root beer to the cooking pot. Close and lock lid in place. Turn steam release valve to off.
-
Select the Meat/Stew setting (or high pressure cook depending on the brand appliance you have the setting may be different) and set the cook time for 60 minutes.
-
When the cook time ends, turn off the pressure cooker and turn the steam release valve on to allow the steam to release naturally. Shred the meat with 2 forks
-
Serve on toasted rolls (or butter lettuce for a low carb option)

If you find there is too much liquid, you can strain the pork and add more bbq sauce, as needed.
