Pressure Cooker Baby Back Ribs Recipes

PRESSURE COOKER BABY BACK RIBS RECIPE

Steps:

• Add all listed dry rub ingredients to a small bowl. Stir to combine. Set aside, or store in an airtight container on your spice rack for up to 1 month.
• There will be a thin membrane on the back of the ribs ("silverskin") that needs to be removed - otherwise the dry rub won't penetrate the meat all around the ribs & your ribs will be difficult to chew! I find it's easiest to use a butter knife (something with a blunt edge that is not sharp) to work the silverskin off the ribs in 1 spot. From there, slide your finger under the membrane & the silverskin should pull off very easily. Reference the photos provided in the blog post above if you need a visual. I also found this simple video tutorial to be very helpful!
• Generously season the ribs all over with kosher salt, then sprinkle the dry rub all over the ribs, using your hands to lightly work the rub into the meat.
• Add the water & liquid smoke mixture to the bowl of your electric pressure cooker. Fit the bowl with its trivet/rack. Place the prepared rack of ribs on the trivet/rack, bending as needed to fit into the bowl. Cover the pressure cooker, securely locking its lid into place & ensuring the vent is turned to its "sealing" position. Cook on low pressure for 30 minutes. Once the timer goes off, allow the pressure to release naturally for about 10 minutes (literally just leave the pot for 10 minutes!) before carefully flicking the vent to its "venting" position to allow any residual pressure to release. The ribs will hold to the bone but will have a great fall-apart tender texture - perfect! Carefully transfer the ribs to a baking sheet or serving platter.
• Optional: Grill the ribs: While the pressure cooker releases, preheat the grill to medium-high (approx. 600 degrees F). Grill the ribs over direct heat for 3-4 minutes per side, brushing them with your favorite BBQ sauce the whole time. You don't need to grill them very long, just enough to get some nice grill marks & smoky char.
• the ribs with your favorite BBQ sauce & BBQ sides. In our house, that's cornbread, potato salad & coleslaw - YUM. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Place the metal rack in your cooker and add 1/2 cup of water (I used 1 cup as the manufacturer of my electric cooker recommends).
• If your cooker is large enough you can bend the racks around in a circle. Otherwise cut into sections and stand them upright in the cooker.
• Lock the lid in place.
• Bring to 15psi (high pressure in electric cooker) and cook for 12 minutes.
• Remove from heat and use quick release method to depressurize.
• When pressure drops, carefully open lid and use long tongs to remove ribs.
• Cover with sauce by dipping in sauce in a shallow pan, or basting well as you broil or BBQ the ribs to complete.

PRESSURE COOKER BARBECUED BABY BACK RIBS RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• Rub: Combine the ingredients and rub mixture evenly over the ribs. Sauce: Heat oil in the pressure cooker pot over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in ketchup, water, molasses, vinegar and mustard. Stir to combine. Cook for one minute (my additional step) Measure out and reserve one cup of the sauce. Arrange the ribs upright in the pot, with meaty sides facing outward, then pour reserved sauce over the ribs. Lock the pressure cooker lid in place and bring to high pressure over medium-high heat. As soon as the pot reaches high pressure, reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 30 minutes adjusting heat as needed to maintain high pressure. Note: I set my electric pressure cooker to medium-high for 15 minutes, then let it do a natural pressure release for 15 minutes. Our ribs turned out perfectly. For a slow cooker, cook for 6 to 8 hours. Before serving: Preheat the broiler with the rack 6-inch below the flame. Remove ribs (meaty side up), with tongs, onto a foil-lined baking sheet with a baking rack set on top. Skim off the excess fat from the sauce, in the pot. Simmer the sauce until it is thickened, about 10 minutes, to equal about 2 cups. Brush the ribs with some of the sauce, flipping them over and brushing both sides. Starting with the meaty side up, broil until browned and sticky, for 2 to 3 minutes per side. Watch closely, as the sauce has sugar and can burn! Turn over a few times, adding additional sauce-- for a total of 10 to 15 minutes. Yum!
