I don’t brown my meat for this recipe.  I find it is quicker and comes out just as good as if I would have browned it.

First, I cut my pork into chunks and sprinkle with a little Tony Chachere’s.  I put my Instant Pot on sauté mode for a few minutes and wait for the meat to start accumulating some juices. I tried to cook this pork recipe the same as I did the beef (without any added water) but this one gave me a burn notice almost immediately.  So I added 1/4 cup of water and scraped the bottom of the pot with a plastic spatula.

Once you have done this you can add all of the remaining ingredients on top.  Set your Instant Pot to pressure cook.  Then close and seal the lid.  It came out so delicious with a brown gravy.

I remember the days I used to stand over the stove for a couple of hours trying to make a brown gravy……..and it would turn out just ok.

Now all I have to do is just dump everything in the Instant Pot and it comes out so much better!!! 🙂

Instructions – Instant Pot Mississippi Pork Roast

 

#1.  First, put your Instant Pot on Sauté (high) and add three tablespoons of vegetable or olive oil.

 

#2.  Next, add your pork and 1 tbsp. seasoning of choice to your meat.  Place all of your meat into the Instant Pot.  Once your pot starts accumulating the juice from your meat add  1/4 cup of water and scrape the bottom of the pot with a plastic spatula.

#3.  Then sprinkle your packets of Ranch and Au Jus on top of your meat.  Place the Peperoncini Peppers and sliced butter on top of the meat.

 

#4.  Close the lid and turn the steam release valve to the “sealing” position.

 

#5.  Next, press the pressure cook button.  Then press pressure level button until high is selected.   Set timer for 45 minutes.  **Please note- If your Instant Pot is still on sauté mode you will need to press “Cancel” then “Pressure Cook”.

 

#6. After the timer has completed allow your Instant Pot to naturally release the pressure.  This should take about 20 minutes.

 

#7.  Finally, serve over rice or mashed potatoes and enjoy!
