Pork chops that are tender, juicy, flavorful and delicious made simply in your Instant Pot!
Pork Chops in the Instant Pot can be so flavorful when using the right seasonings and the best cut of pork chop. In this recipe, we use Liquid Smoke, A1 and brown sugar. If you like pork chops, I would also try our Balsamic Glazed pork chops, also incredible flavor.
What pork chops are the best?
All pork chops are not equally delicious. Pork chops are lean and somewhat quick to cook. When they are overly cooked, you will get a tough chewy piece of meat. When cooked correctly, they can be so juicy and flavorful. The pork loin porterhouse is known as the “cadillac” of pork chops. This cut comes from the hip part of the loin and includes a piece of the tenderloin and loin, separated by a T-shaped bone. If you do not have this type of chop, I would recommend the pork rib chop. It is cut from the center of the pork loin, which makes it tender with a good cut of meat and also includes a T-shaped rib bone. This is the kind I used above.
