Quick Mojo Sprite Pork Roast
Sorry for the bite I took out of the roast in the picture but just could not wait to try this fast but tasty treat. First I am not a great lover of pork unless I am watching it frolic in the fields but our neighbor brought us this roast and my husband had a big hunger and wanted meat when he came home from playing a gig with his band. So I prepared the pork by soaking it in a bath of 1 cup of white vinegar and a 4 cups of water for about 20 minutes. This get all the bad stuff out of the meat and helps to tenderize it. 

Then I made a quick sauce for it to swim in while it cooked in the Instapot. After draining the vinegar and water mixture off the roast, I poured in the following to the Instapot:

2 cups of Sprite
8 ounces of store brand (Publix) mojo marinade
1/2 cup of brown sugar

The roast was about 4 lbs. So if yours is smaller or large you need to adjust the measurements a bit. 

Next I mixed the ingredients together so then blended around the roast. Then I placed the lid on the Instapot and set it for 1 hour on the meat/soup setting. I walked away to enjoy some tv and left it to stew in its own juices...LOL 

That's it! NOW if you want it more succulent and not in a hurry. Leave the roast in the pot and turn the Instapot  over to the slow cook setting and let it simmer with the lid on for a few more hours. This will make it into a fall off the bone juicy pot of pork. 

When I took the piece out to try. I dipped in a Boars Head horseradish and white wine mustard...YUM 
Hope you enjoy!!
