Barbara Schieving — Sat, 22 Jan 2022 22:00:00 +0000

Instant Pot Pork and Hominy Stew is a comforting and hearty dinner made with fork-tender pork shoulder and flavored with chili powder, garlic, and onion. Your family can customize it with their favorite toppings to make a dinner everyone is excited for!

❤️ Why You’ll Love This Recipe: This flavorful pork stew comes together in one pot with minimal hands-on time, so you can do other things while dinner cooks itself.

My family first found this pork and hominy stew in a slow-cooker issue of Martha Stewart Magazine in 2013, and I adapted it for our family’s tastes and to make it in a pressure cooker.

It has been a family favorite ever since!

Since I make this hearty pork stew all winter long, I’ve updated the post with new photos and tips to help you make it at home!

This is one of my family’s favorite Instant Pot Soups!

If I’m feeling fancy and have the time, I’ll serve it with my Green Chile Cornbread. Otherwise, we stick to tortilla chips. 😊

Instant Pot Sweet Pork Tostadas go beyond conventional with crispy tortillas topped with shredded Café Rio–style pork, refried beans, cheese and guacamole—and any other of your favorite toppings.

❤️ While you’ll love these: This sweet pork cooks up quick and tender in your Instant Pot. Served as a tostada, you get a blockbuster combination of sweet and slightly spicy meat plus fresh vegetables and crunchy tortilla.

Café Rio is one of Utah’s top chain restaurants, and my family especially loves their Cafe Rio sweet pork barbacoa. But instead of ordering out, I like to make my own copycat version at home with my Instant Pot.

These sweet pork tostadas are every bit as tasty as the restaurant’s! However, they’re a more manageable size and topped with any of your favorite toppings.

Creamy Instant Pot Risotto Bolognese is a savory and meaty dish with pork sausage, tomatoes, bacon, and melty parmesan cheese. It’s comfort food at its best.

Making risotto in a pressure cooker is so much faster and easier than on the stovetop!

There’s no need to stir constantly, and the rice comes out perfectly tender and creamy every time.

I used to make risotto bolognese on the stovetop with my recipe from Barbara Bakes. But since converting it to a convenient pressure cooker recipe, I no longer cook it any other way!

Instant Pot Chili Verde with shredded pork Mexican spices in a peppery tomatillo sauce is a versatile, easy and family-friendly dinner all year long!

My family has always loved pork chile verde. It’s one of our favorite dishes from a local Mexican Restaurant in Salt Lake City that we love, Red Iguana. We actually have a copycat recipe for the Red Iguana chili verde in the Electric Pressure Cooking Cookbook.

However, this new recipe for Instant Pot Chili Verde uses shredded pork instead of diced pork. It’s juicier, more flavorful and soaks up all the tasty chili verde flavors. I think you’ll love it!

How to Heat Ham in the Instant Pot / Pressure Cooker

Barbara Schieving — Thu, 09 Apr 2020 17:25:00 +0000

It’s amazing how heating spiral-cut ham in the pressure cooker keeps the meat so moist and flavorful! No more dried-out reheated ham on your table with this Instant Pot ham recipe that’s perfect for holiday meals from Easter to Christmas.

I love to serve a nice ham for special occasions, but Honey Baked Ham is a must-have for my family at Easter.

My family also loves ham served hot, but oven-heated ham can end up dry and unappealing. That’s where the Instant Pot comes in!

For food safety purposes, use an instant-read thermometer to verify your reheated ham is at least 145°F in the thickest part after cooking.

The steamy environment inside your pressure cooker is PERFECT to heat a precooked ham so it’s just the right temperature for serving! And it’s always tender and juicy ham I’m proud to serve.

I’ve never cooked it another way ever since!

Update: This is how my family always heats ham for holiday meals! It’s also featured in our Electric Pressure Cooker Cookbook. I’ve updated this post with helpful photos and tips so you and your family can always enjoy moist, delicious ham every time.
