Instant Pot Dominican Pernil (Pulled Pork) Tradit

Instant Pot Dominican Pernil (Pulled Pork)

Traditionally, we cook our pernil for hours and hours. Depending on the weight, up to 6 hours. We start with seasoning, boiling, then cooking in the oven covered, then uncovered, shred and cook longer to get more of that golden look. The process is long and tedious.

This is why I really wanted to try it in the instant pot. I wondered how I could cook it faster but still get that beautiful golden color and keep the flavor intact. It was a success!

Woohoo! 2 weeks ago my YouTube channel reached 1 Million views and I had no idea until a couple of days ago. I don't look at my analytics much because I don't like to feel any pressure with performance. But this was a very nice surprise, I must say.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me there and lets move on to get to 2M! 😊

"Any human, anywhere, will blossom in a hundred unexpected talents and capacities simply by being given the opportunity to do so." - Doris Lessing

It's so awesome to see my work in advertisements like these! I am honestly in awe of my ability to go against my insecurities because many times I have felt and still feel, like I am not good enough to achieve anything.

I hope that I can be an example that we "are" good enough and that "we can" do, be, more than one thing. We have capabilities/talents we can develop, hone. We can do anything we put our heart and soul into.

Tell me, what is something you would love to do that you feel afraid of going for?

One of the things that has me in awe of my husband

One of the things that has me in awe of my husband, David, after 26 years together and 22 years married, is his dedication to all he puts his efforts into. Admiration, is probably the best word to describe the main adjective I can think of when it comes to how I feel about him.

If you don't already follow, please do, and support his newest endeavor, The Modern Hotelier (presented by @stayflexi.hotels) podcast where he hosts along with 🎙️Steve Carran.

The Modern Hotelier is a podcast where you will be enjoying conversations with hospitality executives, personalities, and influencers. Some have even made me tear up! So uplifting and inspiring!
