PRESSURE COOKER BABY BACK RIBS RECIPE



Pressure Cooker Baby Back Ribs Recipe image

The BEST pressure cooker baby back ribs recipe! My dry rub for baby back ribs + a secret ingredient + perfected cooking time = the perfect juicy & tender ribs. You will love this recipe for pork ribs!

Provided by Jess Larson

Categories     Main Dishes

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 3-4-pound rack baby back pork ribs
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 cup water + 1 tablespoon liquid smoke
for serving: Your favorite BBQ sauce of choice, potato salad, coleslaw, cornbread, etc.
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
optional: 1/8-1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

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!

SWEET DRY-RUB BABY BACK RIBS - 6-QT ELECTRIC PRESSURE COOKER



Sweet Dry-Rub Baby Back Ribs - 6-QT Electric Pressure Cooker image

Tried and True, just a hint of heat. I have adapted my dry rub from from Ribs, Chops, Steaks, & Wings by Ray Lampe, and my electric pressure cooking directions from Gracie Cooks! blog. We found the original rub recipe to have way too much salt, and we reduced the cayenne pepper so toddlers wouldn't be overwhelmed. I like to keep the ribs out of the bottom liquid as much as possible, and I top it with a fresh BBQ sauce (or Heinz's Kansas City BBQ sauce was even easier and quite yummy) for finishing off the ribs either in the oven or on the grill. The pressure-cooked unglazed ribs can be frozen - we tend to make as many slabs as our P.C. can hold. Afterwards, strain the liquid, defat, and use as a marinade for a rump roast. Removing the membrane that covers the inner part of the ribs and removing excess fat accounted for most of my prep time. In the Instant Pot, it only took 15 minutes to reach pressure, and 20 for the pressure to come down naturally. (The posted "Cooking Time" is the amount of time at High Pressure (11 psi). I think it is most convenient to cook the ribs ahead and just worry about "finishing" them when you are ready to eat.

Categories     Pork

Time 1h

Yield 2 full rib racks, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup brown sugar
2 -4 tablespoons salt
1/4 cup paprika
2 tablespoons finely ground black pepper
2 tablespoons granulated garlic
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon ground coriander or 1/2 teaspoon dried cilantro
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
4 lbs baby back ribs (2 full racks)
12 ounces Coca-Cola
1/4-1/2 cup barbecue sauce (I like Heinz Kansas City BBQ sauce)

Steps:

  • RUB:.
  • Combine all Rub ingredients in a medium bowl.
  • RIBS:.
  • Using a full cooking sheet, prepare ribs by removing membrane that covers the inside part of the ribs. Also trim off excess fat, if any. (Check YouTube for instructive videos.).
  • Generously coat both sides of both racks of ribs.
  • In 6-quart or larger electric pressure cooker, place roasting rack in inner pot. Pour in Coca Cola. Place each rack of ribs vertically, with meaty side out, and meatier edge on top. (A 6-quart P.C. should accommodate 3 racks, and an 8-quart P.C. should handle 4 racks.).
  • Feel free to sprinkle rest of rub on ribs.
  • Put inner pot into Pressure Cooker base.
  • Secure lid.
  • INSTANT POT: Select MEAT/STEW setting, and increase time to 30 minutes. When cooking has completed, press Off, and unplug. Allow pressure to release naturally (or at least 12 minutes before venting).
  • OTHER ELECTRIC PRESSURE COOKER: Cook on HIGH pressure for 30 minutes, and allow pressure to release naturally.
  • STOVE-TOP P.C.: Please consult your manual. These normally cook at 15 psi instead of 11 psi attained by electric pressure cookers, so cooking times and Natural Pressure Release times will both be shorter. You will have to hang around to make sure the stove-top pressure cooker maintains the right pressure, however.
  • Once pressure cooker has released its pressure, remove the lid. Carefully remove the ribs with tongs. (I move the ribs to a colander to drain as I normally cook them ahead up to this point.).
  • OPTIONAL: Strain the cooking liquid and refrigerate, then remove the top fat layer. It would make a killer marinade for a rump roast. If you don't like that option, discard the cooking liquid as you see fit.
  • FINISHING:.
  • OVEN: Set to BROIL. Put racks meaty side up and glaze with BBQ sauce with a silicone basting brush. Broil for 2-5 minutes or until heated through. If you like, baste again and broil some more.
  • GRILL: Prepare grill. On BBQ mesh grate, place rib racks meaty side up and glaze with BBQ sauce with a silicone basting brush. Heat through. Baste again and heat some more if you wish.
