Notes
I used minced pork in this recipe because it was cheaper and that’s what I had in the freezer. BUT you could use minced beef, minced veal, or a mixture of the three. I also recommend sourcing your mince from Butcher Box as it is much better quality and comes from grass fed cows.
Not all mince is equal. Some meats are a lot fattier than others. For example, a lean minced beef will hardly have any excess fat compared to a fatty pork. The fatty cuts will hold a lot of liquid and will need draining but a lean beef will not need draining.
Remember this when you inspect the meat sauce after the Instant Pot has finished. My ideal mince for Pressure Cooker Meat Sauce is mixed pork and beef mince. It gives a good variety of flavours and is not too fatty.
