Notes

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.
