Pork chops made to perfection in an Instant Pot electric pressure cooker.

Instant Pot Pork Chops

pork chops, bone-in, 3/4″ – 1″ thick

vegetable oil

brown sugar

salt

pepper

chicken broth

Liquid Smoke

Mix together brown sugar, salt and pepper and rub evenly to both sides of the pork chops.

Set Instant Pot to saute and add vegetable oil.

When oil is hot, brown both sides of the pork chops for about 2 minutes.

After browning pork chops, remove from pot and set aside. and press cancel.

Add chicken stock and Liquid Smoke to pot and scrape the bottom with wooden spoon. Add pork chops directly into the liquid on the bottom of the pot. Secure lid and set to pressure cook for 10 minutes. Natural release for at least 10 minutes before removing from pot and serve.

I made these tonight. As I am eating keto I made a few changes. I did not have the liquid smoke, substituted a little soy sauce for color. I substituted brown sugar substitute and had thin pork chops. I cooked for 5 minutes then thicken the juices with xanthan gum to make a gravy. It was very good.

Do you stack the chops on top of each other? I am new to IP cooking have made a meatloaf and spaghetti so far.  Looking forward to making this recipe we have a lot of farm fresh pork to eat.
Thanks in advance.

When I said I was making pork chops, the hubby said, "I don't like pork chops." I knew that but wanted to see how they came out in a pressure cooker. He took a bite and said, "Mmmmm...these are really good!" This recipe is a keeper. I had four chops and doubled the dry ingredients. I cut up some potatoes and put them in a steamer bin.  After stacking the pork chops, I put the steamer bin on top and turned it on. After cooking, I removed the chops and liquid, put the potatoes in the bottom of the instant pot and mashed with milk and butter. I am fairly new to instant pot cooking and I made one mistake. I thought I could use olive oil in place of the vegetable oil, but apparently it heats up faster because I had to scrub the burnt material out of the crock pot after browning. Live and learn!

This was a great tasting and easy recipe! I had 6 chops to cook, so I tripled everything and they turned out moist and tender! Will definitely make this again and again!! It was that good!! Thank you for a quick, simple and very tasty recipe.

I made 4 bone in chops. 1in thick. Doubled the spices but not the liquid. Parts of the chops were dry and then another bite was moist. Next time, should  I cook them less time or more time?  More liquid? 
I let them naturally release about 12 min. Loved the flavor.   I really want this recipe to work because I have a bunch of pork chops

I doubled the recipe and got great results! My husband said this recipe is definitely a keeper. 😁 Yum!!
