Equipment

  • Instant Pot

Ingredients

  • 6-8 lb pork roast
  • 2 cups cola
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 bottle taco sauce

Instructions

  • Place your roast in an Instant Pot and pour Coca Cola over roast. Sprinkle brown sugar over roast, followed by the taco sauce.
  • Put on the lid and push the meat button. Cook on high pressure for 90 minutes. Then do a quick release.
  • When it is finished cooking, take the pork roast out of the Instant Pot and shred. Then add back into the juices in the Instant Pot.
  • Using a slotted spoon, serve on tortillas with your favorite toppings. I like black beans, onions, tomatoes, guacamole, and cheese. You could also serve it on lettuce and make a delicious salad.

How to turn this into a freezer meal:
Place roast, Coca Cola, brown sugar, and taco sauce into a gallon-sized freezer bag. Place freezer bag into freezer and it will last up to 90 days.
When ready to use, dump ingredients from bag into Instant Pot and add 1/2 cup chicken broth or water in with the frozen food. Place the lid on top, move the valve to SEALING, and press the MANUAL button. Set timer for 180-240 minutes (or about 30 minutes per pound of your roast).
Do a NATURAL RELEASE when the timer is done – I even like to let it sit in the Instant Pot for a few hours so that it falls apart so easily. Follow the rest of the instructions as written.
