Instant Pot Carnitas

Carnitas are one of my favorite meals to pre-prep ahead of time and throw into the instant pot for a quick, easy and super flavorful dinner option that doesn't feel prepped at all! My suggestion for this recipe is to buy a large pork butt/should and add all of the ingredients into freezer gallon bags while portioning out the meat. Then freeze them and use as an easy dinner during a busy week!
