Some Tips!

• Opt for thick-cut pork steaks, around 1 to 1.5 inches thick, to ensure they remain juicy and tender during cooking.
• Allow the Instant Pot to preheat before adding the pork steaks. This helps to ensure even cooking and better browning.
• Take the time to properly sear the pork steaks on both sides before pressure cooking.
• After searing the pork, deglaze the pot with chicken broth to loosen any browned bits stuck to the bottom. This helps prevent the “burn” notice and ensures even cooking.
