How much BBQ sauce in the liquid mixture, how much in total?
Add 1/4 cup into the mixture that goes into the Instant Pot. Then the amount you mix in the end is up to you and your personal preference. I think 1/4 cup is good (so you'd need 1/2 cup total). I see the confusion in the recipe, so I will update that now. Thanks!
Hi
Can you use cubed pork shoulder for this recipe?
Absolutely! Pork shoulder makes excellent pulled pork.
When you say cube, how big is each piece supposed to be?
The photos show the size of the cubed pork in the instant pot. It looks like the chunks are large enough that about 3 chunks cover the bottom of the pot
