    Is 3 TB enough liquid for the pressure cooker?

      Hi Caroline, I dumped all the marinade into the pressure cooker and it was definitely more than 3 tablespoons of liquid. About half of the pork was covered. Didn’t have any issues with cooking, the liquid actually looked to have become more after the pressure cooking was done.
