Instant Pot Bacon Pork Loin Filet

I’ve always loved pork. I find it versatile, flavorful, tender and adaptable to most of my recipes. Another added bonus for pork is that you can usually find good prices. I’m also a big fan of ease, so I love, love, love the Smithfield Marinated Fresh Pork available at Safeway. Smithfield does all the hard work, and all that needs to be done is firing up the grill, plugging in the slow cooker, or now . . . the latest kitchen gadget, the electric pressure cooker. In less than 30 minutes you’ve got a nutritious, delicious Instant Pot Bacon Pork Loin Filet, plus sides, for your family.

Bacon Pork Loin Filet

I just recently purchased an electric pressure cooker, and when I was at Safeway, I picked up an Applewood Bacon Pork Loin Filet – because when isn’t anything better with bacon?

The pressure cooker cooks up meat in a matter of minutes. We all love potatoes at my house, so I paired the pork loin with potatoes, some red pepper and carrots for color. Because cheese is always a great addition, finish off with a sprinkle of shredded cheese.

  • You do know that Smithfield meats are owned by the chinese and that the particular Company is 100% controlled by their Government. ( You can look it up, and trace their history) It was purchased to help keep their army fed and be able to get better and safer proteins. This is old news, but I would discontinue supporting them or recommending any brands that are not owned by, supported by or involving 100% US farmers and US corporations. I am in the Ag business and cover the lower 48, so I kinda know what is happening out there. They knew what they were doing by keeping the name!!

  • Somebody needs to do something about the intensely obtrusive ads featured on this website’s mobile version. At one point I had around 45% of the screen real estate completely blocked by ads. I couldn’t even see your recipe!
