Do you put the pork on the instant pot rack or just on bottom of pot.
Carrie says
I put it on the bottom of the Instant pot.
Lisa Lenderink says
I’m not usually a fan of pork loin…but because I’ve loved every meal that I’ve made in my instant pot, I decided to give your recipe a whirl. We had it tonight…….and it was wonderful! I really think it’s the glaze that put this one into the win category. Thank you! I can now put pork loin back on my list 🙂
Mary Ann Varah says
Can this be made in a slow cooker?
Carrie says
I actually have a recipe on how to do that here – https://www.eatingonadime.com/balsamic-pork-tenderloin-crock-pot-recipe/
CHRISTINE says
Does the weight matter on the tenderloin?
Jeanna A Brown says
Excellent sauce! Thanks!
Angela Wetz says
Would you be able to substitute pork tenderloin with boneless pork chops?
Jenny says
Can you do this with a frozen pork loin?
Carrie says
Yes you can – I would just double the cooking time. thanks!
Jill says
Should the pressure level be high or low? My IP has both of these options.
Kim says
Do you brown the tenderloin first?
Carrie says
I use High
Jennie Albert says
Can you 1/2 this recipe?? If so, do I use 1/2 the water and cut the cooking time to 10 mins?
Teri says
We had this for lunch today and it was pure perfection. Thanks for sharing.
Theresa A Ivey says
I’m double checking: You are calling this a pork tenderloin. They usually run 1-2 lbs each. Or are you using a pork loin which usually runs 3-4 lbs? I just want to make sure to get the right cut. Thanks!
Carrie says
I use the pork tenderloins in this recipe. I hope you enjoy it! 🙂
Maureen Hall says
Tenderloin will not fit lengthwise in my 6 qt IP. If I cut it in half, will the cooking time remain the same? Thanks!
Carrie says
Yes, it would be the same. Thank you!
Amber says
I used this recipe with Venison Loin and substituted the water for beef broth and it was amazing! ?
Carrie says
Great to hear – Thanks for sharing!
