I've made this recipe a couple times and it's quite good. A little bit involved, but very flavorful. http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2012/12/carne-adovada-adobada-chili-braised-pork-recipe.html

I'm making it today, in fact. Didn't have any orange juice concentrate so I just added a little bit of sugar to balance things out.

Nice. I have one cookbook that has two recipes for adovada, but neither use orange juice (one of them is pretty similar otherwise). I bet that could be adapted to an instant pot pretty easily, too.

said cookbook, it has some decent New Mexico stuff in it too.

There's a certified scale beside where we're stopping for the night in Omaha. My guess is 7-7200 lbs on the truck, and in the neighborhood of 16k lbs all together

It pulling fine, other than sucking fuel. Sims was warned. :v:

it got 9mpg on the way up.

Trans temps staying around 150F, not even working that hard.
