This Instant Pot pork roast is deliciously tender, moist, and savory, with perfectly cooked veggies like potatoes and carrots, all smothered in a rich gravy. This one-pot dinner cooks a pork roast so much faster, thanks to the Instant Pot, and there’s just so much flavor! Pork Shoulder Roast – What’s Instant Pot pork roast without the pork roast? Using a pork shoulder roast rather than a pork loin
roast gives you a juicier, more tender meat. Since the loin roast is leaner, you run the risk of overcooking it in the Instant Pot, making it tough and unpleasant. Highly recommend going with the shoulder here. Brown Sugar – Just a touch of rich sweetness puts this recipe over the top! If you’re paleo or just avoiding added sugar, feel free to use coconut sugar or Brown Swerve instead. Vegetables – Meat and potatoes are a classic combo, and carrots
are a MUST with pot roast. Both veggies hold up beautifully in the Instant Pot, coming out tender but slightly firm – not mushy. Hey – you’ve made it this far, so now we’re basically best friends!

Reader InteractionsWhy is my instant pot pork loin tough?The key to lean cuts of meat, including pork tenderloin in the Instant Pot, is not to overcook them. If they are cooked too long, the meat will be dry and tough. You want to cook them so the internal temperature reaches 145°F when measured by a digital food thermometer.
How long do you cook pork in the instant pot?Using a HIGH setting, 40 minutes is how long you cook pork in the Instant Pot (using pork loin). If you're using pork shoulder/butt, you'll cook on HIGH for 1 hour. Let the pressure release naturally for 15 minutes. Transfer the pork and onions to a bowl.
Is it better to cook pork loin slow or fast?Pork loin should be slow slow-roasted in order to become tender. It should not be cooked quickly or roasted at high temperatures. Pork tenderloin cooks quite quickly at higher temperatures, anywhere from 350 degrees to 425 degrees F.
How do you keep a pork loin joint from drying out?Place the meat, skin side up on the onions and then taking the fine salt, sprinkle all over the skin, rubbing it in, and also in between the cuts. Gather the foil to cover the sides of the meat where it may be exposed, that is, if there is no skin covering the meat. This will stop it from drying out.
