    Ingredients

    Place on a grill: 5 garlic cloves, 1/2 onion, 1 chile de Arbol, 2 guajillo peppers. Toast these ingredients well, taking care that the chilies do not burn. They toast fast so remove them before the onion and garlic.

    With the sauce you created marinate the meat for one night in the refrigerator.

    Put the meat in the Instant pot together with the marinade and activate the Meat / Stew button in your Instant Pot and let it cook.

    Once it is finished and you can open the pot, let the meat cool a little and crumble it. There you have your healthy barbacoa.
