Instant Pot Instructions
Rub the garlic, salt, and pepper all over the roast. Place the roast into an electric pressure cooker or Instant Pot and drizzle the liquid smoke over it.
Cook on high pressure for 60 minutes, followed by a 15-minute natural release. Then, switch the release valve to the venting position and remove the lid once the steam has stopped coming out. If the roast is larger than 5 pounds, add extra time.

Preheat the oven to 225 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the roast into a 5 to 7 quart oven-safe pot with a lid, or use a roasting pan and cover with aluminum foil later. Rub the garlic, salt, and pepper all over the pork roast to coat it, and drizzle the liquid smoke over it.
Cover the roast with a lid or aluminum foil tightly. Roast at 225 degrees for 8-9 hours or until the pork shreds easily with a fork. Shred the pork in the pan and mix it with the juices.
