Instructions
Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot) and select the Sauté function. Add bacon; cook until crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Pull bacon out with tongs and place into a bowl. Add kielbasa to the pot; lightly brown on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove with tongs and place into the bowl with bacon.
Sauté onion in the pot until soft, 2 to 3 minutes. Crumble bacon and add to the pot. Stir in brown sugar. Add potatoes, sauerkraut, chicken broth, apple, beer, and salt. Mix gently.
Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to the manufacturer's instructions; set the timer for 12 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
Release pressure using the natural-release method for 10 minutes according to the manufacturer's instructions, then release remaining pressure carefully using the quick-release method. Unlock and remove the lid.
