Season your pork roast with my homemade pulled pork seasoning on all sides evenly.
2 lb Pork loin roast, ¼ cup Brown sugar, 1 Tablespoon Garlic powder, 1 Tablespoon Onion powder, 1 Tablespoon Smoked paprika, ½ Tablespoon Dry mustard, ½ Tablespoon Cumin
Turn your Instant Pot to saute and add in the olive oil. Once your oil is hot, sear your pork on all sides. After searing to your liking, set pork aside.
1 Tablespoon Olive oil
Turn the Instant Pot off, and pour in beef broth. Use a wooden spoon to deglaze (scrape the brown bits) from the bottom of the pot.
1 cup Beef broth
Add your pork back to the pot with BBQ sauce. Close the lid and pressure cook on high for 40 minutes.
1½ cups Barbecue sauce
Once the cooking time is up, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then do a quick release.
Remove the pork from the Instant Pot and shred it with two forks. Stir in any extra BBQ sauce (if needed) and serve!

Notes
Make sure to sear the meat first! Searing the pork will add a ton of flavor that you won't get by just pressure cooking it right away.
Go wild with seasonings! My blend contains brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dry mustard, and ground cumin, but you can add so much more if you'd like. Try black pepper, cayenne, extra salt, or chili powder!
You can replace the broth with stock or even beer for extra flavor. I've made it with dark beer before and it was amazing!
