HERE ARE MY TOP 4 WAYS TO MAKE MY INSTANT POT PULLED PORK:
Sandwich:
Picture this: a mouthwatering pulled pork sandwich that’s a symphony of flavors and textures. To assemble, start with a soft, toasted bun that provides a gentle contrast to the succulent pulled pork. Grab a generous portion of my tender instant pot pulled pork, piled high and glistening with its savory juices. Now, it’s time for the toppings that take it to the next level. Add a refreshing crunch with some crisp lettuce and slices of juicy tomato. Don’t forget the tangy kick of pickles that cuts through the richness, adding a delightful zing. Finally, drizzle it all with a smoky barbecue sauce that amplifies the taste sensation. Take a bite, and let the layers of smoky, savory, and tangy flavors dance on your palate. This pulled pork sandwich is pure comfort food bliss that satisfies with every single bite.
Quesadillas:
To assemble my pulled pork quesadillas, start by layering a generous amount of my tender instant pot pulled pork on a tortilla. Then, sprinkle a handful of shredded cheese on top—cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend of your favorite cheeses. Next, fold the tortilla in half and place it in a hot skillet to crisp up both sides. Now, it’s time to take these quesadillas to the next level. Drizzle some zesty sour cream or tangy Greek yogurt over the quesadillas for a creamy contrast. For freshness, add a handful of crisp lettuce, thinly sliced tomatoes, and cilantro leaves. And if you’re feeling a bit adventurous, a squeeze of zesty lime juice or a sprinkle of diced jalapeños will give your taste buds a spicy kick. So, get your skillet hot and sizzling, because these instant pot pulled pork quesadillas are about to become your go-to.
Nachos:
My instant pot pulled pork nachos will have your mouth watering! To assemble, start with a bed of crispy tortilla chips on a large baking sheet. Layer on generous amounts of my tender instant pot pulled pork, ensuring each chip gets a delicious topping. Next, sprinkle a generous helping of melty shredded cheese over the pork, allowing it to melt and bind everything together. Then, pop the tray in the oven at 350*F until the cheese is gooey and bubbly. Once out of the oven, it’s time to pile on the toppings! Add dollops of tangy sour cream, zesty guacamole, and zingy salsa, followed by a sprinkle of chopped fresh cilantro for a burst of freshness.
Stuffed Baked Potato:
Imagine sinking your teeth into a mouthwatering pulled pork stuffed baked potato that is bursting with flavor and loaded with irresistible toppings. To assemble, start by generously scooping out the fluffy baked potato flesh, creating a perfect pocket for the tender pulled pork. Then, generously pile on my succulent instant pot pulled pork, allowing it to mingle with the creamy potato goodness. But we’re not done yet! Add a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese to create a melty, cheesy blanket over the pork, followed by a dollop of tangy sour cream and a sprinkle of freshly chopped green onions for a burst of freshness. With each bite, you’ll savor the heavenly combination of smoky pulled pork, creamy potato, gooey cheese, and the tantalizing flavors.
