Thank you. It’s a 5lb pork loin. Thick. Was hoping to shred. It’s massive for two people as a roast. Will look for other recipes. Can they be sliced for chops??

I always use pork loin over pork shoulder. The shoulder is too fatty for me. I use the crockpot for shredded pork, but it takes longer (a few hours) to become shredable. Make sure you have enough liquid too so it doesn’t dry out.

not the same at all. you can do it, but it won't be the same.

also, pork loin is not the same as pork tenderloin.

I would just roast quickly in oven, and then cube and pan fry in canola/vegetable oil with onions, thyme, garlic, a little chipotle or cayenne and a splash of orange juice.

It won't shred as well, and will be a bit dry. The pressure cooker will help, but it still won't be quite as good. I would cut it into 1" cubes before cooking.

No, there is not enough fat and the fat rendering creates the texture

I have made pulled pork with pork tenderloin and it’s delicious! Just less fat.

In pressure cooker shredded pork?

It’s the NYT Spicy Pork Shoulder recipe. Had a pork loin in last meat delivery, spaced it was a different cut. I understand it’s less fatty. Would the texture be ok?
