For an extra layer of flavor, consider searing the pork tenderloin in a hot pan before placing it in the pressure cooker. This will add a beautiful crust and enhance the overall taste. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your preference. For a milder flavor, use less; for a spicier kick, use more. If you don't have a pressure cooker, you can adapt this recipe for a slow cooker. Cook on low for 4-6 hours, or until the pork is easily shredded with a fork.
