- 1 cup red wine (not cooking wine)
- 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
- 2 teaspoons italian seasoning
- 1 bay leaf

- Brown the pancetta and pork in 4-quart or larger cooker.
- Drain excess fat, and add the onions, carrots, and garlic and cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until the vegetables soften slightly, about 2 minutes.
- Stir in the wine and boil until about half evaporates. Scrape up any browned bits sticking to the bottom of the cooker. Add italian seasoning and salt and pepper.
- Cover the meat with tomato sauce. Do not stir.Lock the lid in place.
- Over high heat bring to high pressure. Reduce the heat just enough to maintain high pressure and cook for 8 minutes.
- Turn off the heat.
- Allow the pressure to come down naturally. Remove the lid, tilting it away from you to allow steam to escape. Remove bay leaf and stir. Break up meat with a wooden spoon or potato masher, leaving some bite sized pieces intact.
- Serve over rice, pasta, or polenta.
