Pressure cooker porcupine meatballs. The pressure cooker makes these meatballs easy and juicy. They’re soft, tender, and burst with flavor after just a little bit of cooking time.

How to Make Porcupine Meatballs in Electric Instant Pot:

In a large mixing bowl, combine all sauce ingredients. Mix well and pour into the pot turning to the sauté mode. When the sauce is starting to simmer, stir in, then carefully add meatballs. Close the instant pot and lock the lid.

Set the machine to cook at high pressure. Set the timer to cook for 25 minutes.

Using the natural Release method, bring pressure to normal. Carefully unlock and open the lid. Stir cooked meatballs well before serving.
