Step 1

Cut the Pork Shoulder (3.7 lb) in half and use the Vegetable Oil (2 Tbsp) to brown on both sides in the pot, about 3 minutes per side.

Step 2

Take out the pork and combine Barbecue Sauce (2 cups) and Water (1/2 cup) in the pot, bringing it to a boil.

Step 3

Add pork, seal the pressure cooker, and set to high pressure cooking for 75 minutes at low heat after pressure has been reached.

Step 4

Allow the pressure cooker to depressurize naturally, about 15 to 20 minutes. Once the pressure valve has dropped, remove the lid carefully. Take out pork and set aside.

Step 5

Strain the juices from the pot, resrving 1/2 cup. Rip apart the pork using forks.

Step 6

Stir the remaining cup of BBQ sauce and reserved 1/2 cup juices to the pot, and mix while bringing to a boil. Add pulled pork and stir well.

Step 7

Simmer for a few minutes.

Step 8

Put on a crusty roll or French baguette as an open faced sandwich, or panini or other bread for a regular sandwich, adding more BBQ sauce if desired. Or, use as a topping on hot rice.
