Instant Pot Pork Roast & Sauerkraut

Ingredients:

2 lb boneless pork roast (shoulder or leg)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1 tbsp cooking oil
16 oz sauerkraut with liquid
1 cup apple juice or chicken stock
1 tsp dried or fresh rosemary
1 small apple peeled and sliced
1/2 onion cut in chunks
1 carrot sliced

Directions:

Season the pork with salt and pepper on all sides.

Press the Saute button on the Instant Pot. When it’s hot, add the cooking oil. After 1 minute, add the pork roast and brown on all sides. Remove from the pot. Turn off the Instant Pot.

Pour the apple juice or chicken stock into the pot and whisk quickly to remove the browned bits from the bottom of the pot.

Return the pork to the pot with the liquid. Sprinkle with rosemary. Add the vegetables and apples around the sides of the pork. Top with the sauerkraut.

Put the lid on the Instant Pot. Make sure the valve is set to Sealing. Press the Pressure Cook button and set the cook time to 1 hour. When the cook time is over, allow the pot to naturally release pressure.

Take the pork out and slice it. Drain the sauerkraut. Serve together.
