Pressure-cook on high for 50 minutes. Let pressure drop naturally and carefully remove the lid.
Hyvee Culinary Expert Tip
Pressure-cooking a 3- to 4-lb. roast takes about 50 minutes compared to 5 to 7 hours in a slow cooker.
Remove the pork from the pressure cooker and carefully trim any fat. Reserve ½ cup of the cooking juices; discard remaining juices. Return pork to the pressure cooker and shred. Add the reserved cooking juices.
Place pineapple slices on bun bottoms. Using a slotted spoon, spoon pork mixture on top. Sprinkle with green onions. If desired, add BBQ sauce. Add bun tops.
