Ingredients
- 2 pork tenderloins (about 2.5 lbs total)
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 small yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tbsp coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 2 tsp chili powder
- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 cup apple cider
Instructions
- Heat Instant Pot to saute function.
- Cut each pork tenderloin into chunks about 4 inches long.
- Add in oil. Once oil is hot, add in pieces of pork tenderloin to Instant Pot and saute for 2 minutes on each side just to brown.
- Set pork aside on a plate.
- Add diced onion to hot IP and saute for 2-3 minutes before adding garlic. Once garlic is fragrant, turn off IP.
- Add pork back into IP, and then add all seasonings and apple cider on top.
- Seal the lid and manually cook for 25 minutes. Once 25 minutes is up, let IP naturally release for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes is up, quick release the rest.
- Turn off IP and take off lid. Let pork rest for 10 minutes before shredding. It should be easy to peel apart, if not, it may need more cook time.
- Shred your meat and mix into all the juices. Enjoy!
