Orange Beef “Fried Rice” Casserole
Thanksgiving-Inspired Pulled Turkey
| By : |
The sun doesn’t rise and set on pork, beef, and chicken when it comes to pulled dishes. You can even cook turkey tenderloins until they can be pulled into what can only be described as a one-pot version of a Thanksgiving meal, made with cranberry sauce, sage, and thyme. The shredded sweet potato adds lots of sweetness and thickens the sauce as the pieces melt into it.
Although turkey tenderloins work best because they shred into a “pulled” consistency, a chunk of boneless skinless turkey breast will do fine even if it’s not so easy to shred. Cut it into three even pieces to match the approximate size and shape of turkey tenderloins.

Press Meat/Stew or Pressure cook (Manual) on High pressure for 25 minutes with the Keep Warm setting off. - When the machine has finished cooking, turning it off and let its pressure return to normal naturally, about 20 minutes.

Set the led askew over the pot for 5 to 10 minutes to blend the flavors and allow the turkey to continue to absorb the sauce.
Recipe Notes
Beyond
• For a 3-quart cooker, you must use 1/2 cup broth and halve the remaining ingredients.
• For an 8-quart cooker, you must increase all the ingredients by 50 percent.
• Unfortunately, this recipe doesn’t work well on the slow cooker setting. The turkey dries out too quickly.
• For the full Thanksgiving treatment, buy corn muffins, split them in half, then toast them cut side down on a baking sheet in a 400°F oven until crisp at the edges. Serve the pulled turkey over them in bowls.
