#### Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 3-pound boneless pork roast, cut into 3-4 inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ⅓ cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 cups barbecue sauce, divided
  • 1¼ cups chicken or beef broth
  • 1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (optional)
  • Slider buns

Steps

  1. Prepare the Spice Rub: In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, cumin, and cayenne pepper.
  2. Season the Pork: Rub the spice mixture evenly over the cubed pork pieces. Set aside.
  3. Mix the Sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, 1 cup of the barbecue sauce, hot pepper sauce (if using), and 1 cup of the broth.
  4. Sear the Pork: Set your Instant Pot to the sauté setting. Add the olive oil and let it heat up. Add half of the seasoned pork cubes and sauté for about 5 minutes, turning to brown all sides. Remove the browned pork to a plate and repeat with the remaining pork.
  5. Deglaze the Pot: Turn off the Instant Pot. Pour in the remaining ¼ cup of broth and use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
  6. Pressure Cook: Return all the browned pork to the Instant Pot. Pour the barbecue sauce mixture over the meat. Close the lid and set the valve to the sealing position. Cook on manual high pressure for 40 minutes.
  7. Release Pressure: Once the cooking time is complete, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then perform a quick release for any remaining pressure.
  8. Shred the Pork: Remove the pork from the Instant Pot and shred it using two forks. Stir in the remaining 1 cup of barbecue sauce.
  9. Assemble the Sliders: Serve the pulled pork on slider buns. Optionally, top with coleslaw or pickles for added flavor and crunch.
