Pork meat is a high-quality protein that is easy to cook in the Instant Pot. This cooking method is trendy because it cooks fast while infusing flavor. Cooking with beer is a great idea too. Beer keeps the Instant Pot Pork Tenderloin moist and adds a tasty flavor also. The spices we used are bay leaves, thyme, and oregano. Plus dried, roasted garlic and chicken bouillon.

For the Instant Pot Pork Tenderloin, we are using two and a half pounds of fresh pork tenderloin.

The third option is Mole Pork Tenderloin Sliders. We used a homemade mole poblano gifted by a friend that traveled to Puebla. Any mole works even green pepita mole if desired. The bread is a sweet Hawaiian slider. The sliders have chopped roasted peanuts and a side of pickled onions. If you prefer a gluten-free option, shred the pork loin, combine with the mole and make tacos using corn tortillas.

Tips for cooking the best Instant Pot Pork Tenderloin

  • Choose a pork tenderloin with deep pink color.
  • Season the pork tenderloin with cooking oil, powdered chicken bouillon, roasted garlic, thyme, oregano, and bay leaves.
  • Sear the pork loin in a skillet before cooking in the Instant Pot, giving a beautiful brown color.
  • Otherwise, after the pork tenderloin cooks in the IP, take it out and broil or torch for a few minutes to achieve the browning effect.
  • Use gold beer, one complete can, or bottle. The beer provides flavor and moisture, and there is no need to use water.
  • Save the jus and use it to serve the pork loin or make a gravy sauce with it.
  • Set the IP in high, and cook the pork loin for fifteen minutes, do a rapid release, and let the pork rest for three minutes before slicing.
