Instant Pot Mocha and Peanut Rubbed Pork Roast

I tried something new today, and it was really nice.  Both John and I agree the only thing that would have made it better was adding Coca Cola to the sauce, to cut the slight bitter flavor.  I give you mocha peanut rubbed roast made in the instant pot, my favorite kitchen appliace at this point.

I based this off of a recipe online and honestly winged it.  For the rub, I used:

4 T instant coffee

1 T ground mustard

1 t ground cumin 

1 T ground garlic

1 t ground cumin 

1 t paprika

1 T onion powder

4 T peanut flour

I cut up a pork roast into chunks

It was still partially frozen.  I love that feature of the Instant pot, using frozen meat is no issue.

Stir to combine the mix, add it to a bowl and add the meat and toss until coated completely.

Get some butter melting on the saute setting on the Instant pot.

Add the meat.  Prepare 2 cups of water with some of the instant coffee and a bullion cube, I use vegetarian for lack of MSG.

Just pour the coffee mixture over top.

I used a little corn start slurry to thicken the sauce.

Made some fancy mashed potatoes

Thanks for following and supporting, until next time!
