Instructions

1 Trim the extra fat off of the pork shoulder roast. Cut some small slits into the
meat and place garlic cloves into those slits.
2 Sprinkle the salt evenly over the pork meat.
3 Turn on the Saute mode on the Instant Pot until the screen display says hot.
Place the bacon slices in a single layer. When it starts to brown then flip over
and cook for one more minute. Turn off the Instant Pot but hitting cancel.
4 Place the pork meat in the Instant Pot right on top of the Bacon. Pour in 1 cup
of water. Close Lid and turn the knob to the seal position.
5 Hit Manual. Set to 90 minutes on High Pressure.
6 Once timer is done it will automatically switch to "keep warm" and natural
pressure release. After 15-20 minutes you should be able to open the lid. If the
lid does not release on its own then you can switch to vent manually.
7 Once the meat has cooled off enough to handle, take meat out it a large tray or
bowl. Shred the meat using two forks or kitchen tongs. The meat should be very
tender and easily shred.
8 Serve "as is" or cook in a hot pan for a few minutes to crisp up the skin.
