Recently when I shared our Crock Pot BBQ Cola Chicken (Low Carb) with that low carb bbq cola sauce we have been obsessed with ever since we adapted from one of our favorite low carb cookbooks: Bacon and Butter. A Crock Posse member asked us to convert it to an instant pot or electric pressure cooker recipe and so we got right back in the kitchen and whipped up this Electric Pressure Cooker Cola BBQ Chicken Recipe… ya know, taking one for the team ;). So whatever electric pressure cooker you have, be it an Instant Pot or Crock-Pot Express or other brand, this one is for you.

How to make Cola BBQ Chicken in an Instant Pot, Crock Pot Express or other electric pressure cooker

Place your chicken in a 6 quart electric pressure cooker, season with salt and top with butter. Mix together remaining ingredients and pour over the top. Cook under high pressure for 10 minutes and let the pressure release naturally for 15 minutes before flipping to quick release. Remove chicken to shred. Meanwhile if thicker sauce is desired, turn unit on saute feature and reduce sauce by simmering and stirring occasionally until it thickens. Return shredded chicken to sauce and enjoy!

Electric Pressure Cooker Cola BBQ Chicken (Low Carb) Notes

This recipe features our very favorite low carb bbq cola sauce we adapted from one of our favorite low carb cookbooks: Bacon and Butter.
You can find the slow cooker version of this recipe here: Crock Pot Cola BBQ Chicken
If you are looking for other low carb recipes, you can find them all here.
We have made this recipe in our 6 quart Instant Pot, Crock Pot Express and 6.5 quart Ninja Foodi, but you can make it in any 6-8 quart electric pressure cooker.
If you cannot manually set your unit to high pressure for 10 minutes, just use a preset button (i.e. stew) that cooks on high pressure and allows you to reduce time to 10 minutes.
We like to use boneless skinless thighs in this recipe. You can use chicken breasts, but they may cook a little faster.
