Instant Pot Prime Rib Recipes

INSTANT POT PRIME RIB

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the butter, garlic, herbs and spices until fully incorporated. Then, spread the butter mixture evenly over all sides of the meat.
• Pour the beef stock at the bottom of a 6-quart or larger Instant Pot, and then place the trivet into the pot and place your roast on top. Lock on the lid, making sure the valve is set to seal. Cook on high pressure for 15 minutes, and after time is up, keep on warm for 30 minutes. If you're looking for medium-rare meat that is mostly pink with a red center, aim for a temperature of around 135 degrees F.
• Once the roast is at your desired temperature, carefully open the Instant Pot and transfer the roast to a small baking sheet, allow to rest for 20 minutes before carving.
• While the roast rests, remove the trivet from the Instant Pot and press the sauté button. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch with a tablespoon of water. Bring the sauce to a simmer and stir in cornstarch mixture. Cook until the sauce has thickened. Give it a taste and adjust seasoning accordingly, adding more salt or pepper as needed.
• Serve the roast sliced with the sauce spooned over.
• Note: If you want to develop a golden brown crust on the roast, you can place it under the broiler, turning it on all its sides until fully browned all over.

REVERSE-SEARED INSTANT POT PRIME RIB AND GRAVY

Steps:

• Make 4 evenly spaced small slits about 1/2 inch deep on the top of the roast with a small paring knife. Put a few rosemary leaves on top of each slit and push them in using a piece of garlic. Repeat on the other side of the roast. Make two slits on the ends of the roast and stuff with the remaining rosemary and garlic.
• Combine 5 teaspoons salt and 1 tablespoon pepper in a small bowl and stir to combine. Sprinkle all over the roast, firmly pressing the mixture onto the exterior and stuffing some into the slits.
• Place the trivet in the bottom of the insert of a 6-quart Instant Pot®. Pour in the beef broth and 1/4 cup of the wine. Place the roast on the trivet, fat-side up, then set it to pressure cook on low for 10 minutes with the keep warm feature turned on (see Cook's Note). Once the pressure cook cycle ends let the pot stand, closed, for 45 minutes. Open the lid and transfer the roast to a plate. Remove the trivet and pour the broth into a heatproof container. Rinse the insert and return it to the machine.
• Set the machine to sauté and add the butter. Once the butter is melted and foamy add the roast and sear until dark brown on all sides and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the roast registers 120 degrees F for medium rare, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the roast to a cutting board and let rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
• Meanwhile, immediately add the remaining 1/4 cup wine to the insert, scraping up the browned bits that are stuck to the bottom. Continue to cook until almost all the wine has evaporated then sprinkle in the flour. Stir until a uniform paste forms then whisk in the reserved broth. Bring to a boil and simmer until the flavor of the flour has cooked out, about 5 minutes. Adjust the seasoning, if needed, and whisk in a bit more beef broth if the gravy becomes too thick. Strain through a mesh strainer into a gravy boat and stir in the herbs right before serving. Serve alongside the roast.

INSTANT POT® RIBS

Steps:

• Combine juice, vinegar, and liquid smoke in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Add bay leaves.
• Add a trivet to the pot and place ribs on top, trimming as needed to fit. Close and lock the lid; set valve to sealing. Choose high pressure and set timer for 15 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 15 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
