Pork

Take a two pound pork roast put it in the pressure cooker with ½ cup of water. Season it with some hot sauce on top (I use Cholula sauce from Mexico, you can buy it in the states, but, any hot sauce should work) and some Cajun seasoning sprinkled on top of the sauce. (I use Tony Chachere’s Creole seasoning, also from the states). Cook for 30 min. under pressure, let cool down and pull pork apart to add to Chile.

Chili for 20, No problem!
