Prep your instant pot. Pour ½ cup of BBQ sauce and chicken broth into the bottom of your Instant Pot or pressure cooker, mix to combine, and spread across the bottom. If you need to add a little more to cover the bottom, add more broth (this will depend on the size of your Instant Pot).
Make your spice mixture. In a small bowl, mix garlic powder, smoked paprika, chili powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.
Cook chicken breasts. Place chicken in the instant pot and sprinkle the spice mixture overtop. Close the Instant Pot lid, make sure the valve is set to the sealing position, set to manual on high pressure, and pressure cook for 13 minutes. You can either quick release the remaining pressure or let it naturally release when done.
Shred. Open the lid and remove the chicken. Set your Instant Pot to saute mode for 5-10 minutes to help absorb excess liquid. While Instant Pot is on saute mode, shred chicken with two forks. Once most of the liquid is absorbed (you still want some - about ⅓-½ cup left in the pot), turn off Instant Pot, and add your shredded chicken back into the pot. Pour in the rest of the BBQ sauce (½ cup) and stir to combine. Add more BBQ sauce if you like.
Enjoy! Enjoy however you like!
