Skim as much fat as possible from the surface of the cooking liquid then strain over a bowl, pressing the solids to extract all of the juices.

Step 12
Set the cooker to SAUTÉ function and allow the liquid to boil until reduced by half (about 1 1/2 cups), about 10 minutes.

While the liquid reduces, use two forks to pull the meat into shreds. Adjust salt, to taste.
