  • Author: Caroline Fausel

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs Pork shoulder or butt
  • ½ tsp ground mustard
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp cayenne
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • ¼ cup coconut aminos

Instructions

  1. Make the spice rub: In a small bowl, whisk together the ground mustard, onion powder, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, salt and pepper. Set aside. 
  2. Trim excess fat from the pork and cut it into 4 even pieces. 
  3. In a large bowl, add the pork and spice rub and toss to coat. 
  4. Set your Instant Pot to saute setting and add 2 Tbs olive oil. Working in batches, brown all sides of each piece of pork.
