INSTANT POT PORK LOIN WITH CARROTS AND ONIONS

Steps:
- Stir to combine the brown sugar, dill, paprika, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub the mixture all over the pork loin.
- Set a 6- or 8-quart Instant Pot® to medium saute (see Cook's Note) and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the pork loin and brown all over, turning with tongs, about 4 minutes. Remove to a plate. Add the onions and carrots and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables begin to brown, about 4 minutes. Add the tomato paste, thyme and sage. Stir to coat the vegetables in the tomato paste. Add the wine and simmer until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth and return to a simmer. Tuck the bay leaf into the sauce and nestle the pork loin in the middle (it will not be covered by liquid).
- Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 30 minutes.
- After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for natural release. After 10 minutes, being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid. Remove the pork to a cutting board.
- Return the sauce to a simmer on the medium saute setting. Mash the butter and flour into a paste with a fork in a small bowl. Whisk into the simmering sauce and cook, whisking, until sauce is thickened, about 1 minute. Discard the bay leaf and stir in the parsley. Thinly slice the pork and serve with the sauce.
INSTANT POT APPLE BUTTER PORK CHOPS

Steps:
- Salt and pepper pork chops. Turn your instant pot to on and to saute on high. Once the pot is HOT, add a couple of tablespoons of oil and brown on both sides in batches of 3 so that you don't overcrowd your pot. Add more oil to the pot as needed. Set browned chops aside in a plate. Once you have browned all of your chops, add the onions to the instant pot and saute for a couple of minutes. Add the garlic next and saute for 1 minute more, stirring constantly. Add pork chops back to the pot along with any juices that have accumulated underneath. Pour chicken broth around the chops then top chops with apple sauce and apple butter.
- Put the lid on the instant pot and close the valve. Turn pot to manual and set it for 20 minutes. Once it gets done, let it natural release for 20 minutes. (We loved ours with a little garlic salt right before serving. SO GOOD!)
- The leftover pork makes amazing BBQ sandwiches or BBQ topped baked potatoes. So before I put up the leftovers, I shred them up and added a tablespoon apple cider vinegar and about 1/4 cup of barbecue sauce and then use it to make bbq sandwiches or bbq topped potatoes for lunch the next day! YUM!

Steps:
- Place lemon juice into the insert of a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and pour in about 4 inches of water. Drop apples into the lemon water as you slice them to keep them from browning.
- Drain the apples. Add apple juice, brown sugar, white sugar, honey, cinnamon sticks, and ground cloves. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 8 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
- Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Remove the cinnamon sticks.
- Use an immersion blender to puree the apple butter. Mix well with a spoon. Close and lock the lid. Select Slow Cooker Function according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 60 minutes.
- Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Test the consistency by putting a small amount on a plate and refrigerating for 10 minutes. The final consistency should be thick enough to spread with a knife. If it is too liquid for your preference, cook for 1 more hour.
