Instructions
- IN a small stock pot, combine ingredients for barbecue sauce and bring to a simmer over low heat. Simmer 15 minutes. Remove from heat and pour into a small jar.
- FILL a medium stock pot with water and chop potatoes into large chunks. Add sweet potatoes to water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium/low and continue to boil for 20 minutes. Alternate cooking for sweet potatoes: ADD 1” of water to instant pot with grate. Add raw sweet potato chunks and set to manual high pressure for 10 minutes.

- MASH sweet potatoes and stir in butter, cinnamon and sea salt. Serve 1 chop with half of sweet potato mash.
Notes
*My suggestion is to make this in bulk and then freeze some! You can also use store bought bbq sauce to keep things simple, it’s just harder to find one without added sugar. Having a little sugar in your bbq is likely not going to be a problem either. I just wanted you to have the option of a healthy homemade version!
