Ingredients

  • 1 (3-pound) pork butt roast
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 (16-ounce) can sweetened whole cranberries
  • 1 medium onion, peeled and diced
  • 1/4 cup orange marmalade
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 3 large sweet potatoes, peeled and quartered
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon cornstarch; 2 tablespoons cold water

Directions

  • 1. Place the pork, fat side down, in the pressure cooker. Salt and pepper to taste. Combine the cranberries, onion, marmalade, orange juice, cinnamon, and cloves in a large measuring cup; stir to mix and then pour over the pork roast.
    2. Arrange the sweet potatoes around the meat. Lock the lid into place and bring to low pressure; maintain pressure for 45 minutes. Remove from heat and allow pressure to release naturally.
    3. To serve with a thickened sauce, transfer the meat and sweet potatoes to a serving platter. Cover and keep warm. Skim any fat off of the pan juices, making sure you have 2 cups of juice remaining in the cooker.
    4. Return the pressure cooker to medium heat. Combine the cornstarch with the water. Whisk into the liquid in the pressure cooker; simmer and stir for 2 minutes, or when the cornstarch flavor has cooked out of the sauce and it is thickened and bubbly.
