Instructions

Rub Preparation:

In a bowl, add the ingredients for the rub, and mix well.

Pulled Pork Preparation:

Place the pork in a large bowl and pat dry with a paper towel. 

Add half of the rub, making sure to coat the pork well. Let it sit for 15 minutes.

Put the instant pot on sauté mode.

Put olive oil in the instant pot. Once hot, add the pork and sear for 10 minutes, turning halfway through.

Top the pork with the rest of the rub, and add the chicken broth.

Cover the instant pot, and put on manual mode.

Pressure-cook for 75 minutes.

Release the pressure, once done.

After the pressure has been released, transfer pork in a sheet pan.

Shred using two forks or a meat shredder.

Serve with low-carb tortillas. Topped with guacamole, sour cream, red onions and fresh parsley.
