Great recipe and a keeper! I couldn't find a butt roast so I used a lean bone-in pork roast. (I honestly don't remember what cut it was). I used baby carrots and Yukon gold potatoes because I had them both on hand. 15 minutes was actually too long in the pressure cooker; 10 would have been fine. But, this was a new pressure cooker and I was still getting a feel for the cooking times. It was outstanding! Next time I will buy fresh paprika; I used regular McCormick paprika this time, and I think that would have been fine, except my paprika was pretty old. Paprika will lose its flavor within a month or two, so always use the freshest paprika you can find, even if you can't find Hungarian Sweet.
