    Unknown

    List of Ingredients




    2 tsp. Finely minced garlic
    1 Tblsp. soy sauce
    2 Tblsp. brown sugar, packed
    1/4 tsp. Ground allspice
    1/4 tsp. Cayenne
    1/2 tsp. Salt, or to taste
    4 to 4-1/2 lb. Picnic shoulder, rind removed (trimmed weight)
    2-1/2 cups beer
    2 bay leaves
    6 cups tightly packed, sliced onions
    2 Tblsp. cornstarch dissolved in 3 Tblsp. water

    Recipe



    In a small bowl, make a paste by mashing together the garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar, allspice, cayenne, and salt. Rub into the picnic shoulder. Pour the beer into the pressure cooker and add the bay leaves. Set the rack in place. Place half the onions on the rack and set the pork on top. Spread the remaining onions over the pork. Lock the lid in place and over high heat and bring to high pressure. Adjust the heat to maintain high pressure and cook for 55 minutes. Let the pressure drop naturally or use the quick-release method. Remove the lid, tilting away from you, to allow any excess steam to escape. Check the pork for doneness with a meat thermometer inserted into the center. It should register 170° F. If not, lock the lid back in place, and return the pork to high pressure for a few more minutes. Remove pork to a platter and set aside in a warm place. Remove the rack. If there is more than 2 cups of sauce, boil vigorously over high heat to reduce. Whisk in just enough of the cornstarch solution to thicken the gravy while cooking at a low boil for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the bay leaves, carve the pork, and pour over the gravy. Serves 4 to 6.
