Yes, you guys! Back in action with the Instant Pot!
After I used it to make the Instant Pot Spaghetti, I couldn’t wait to put more delicious foods up in this bad boy.
We’re also back in action with back to school.
I feel like moms and dads everywhere are torn on whether they’re happy to have their kids head back to class or not.
I’m in the “not” category this year. Summer just went by way too fast!
Can they just go back in October or something? Because, I mean, it IS really warm here still.
It should be illegal to send people back to school when it’s still warm enough out to go swimming.
Right?? Right.

Ok, back to your regularly scheduled food programming here.
I decided to go with country style pork ribs because they are so very meaty!
I do like baby back ribs as well, but I’ve definitely bought them, then been disappointed at the measly amount of meat I got out of it.
Using country style ribs ensures that everybody leaves the table satisfied!
Depending on your grocery store, sometimes these ribs are sold bone in, and sometimes bone out. Mine were bone out. But, either one will work just fine!
I love how easy these are and that I can have some tasty BBQ ribs on the table in about an hour.
Yes, I said an hour, but pretty much all of that time is hands off for you because the ribs are cooking to super tender perfection in the Instant Pot!
The dry rub for these babies is made up of spices that you most likely already have at home.
You slather the dry rub on. Get some beef broth in the bottom of your Instant Pot. Put the ribs in and pour on your favorite BBQ sauce. Then, let it do it’s thing!
These boneless pork ribs will melt in your mouth, and become a new family favorite!

Just great. I only made
2 ribs and cooked for 40 minutes
They were fall apart tender without
Drying out
Great recipe
I only have 1 lb. what should the cooking time be?
My family loves these! Could I use beef short ribs instead of country style ribs? Would the cooking time change?
These are absolutely amazing! I had about 5 lbs f meat so I doubled the recipe. My husband said “don’t change a thing”.
Did you change the cooking time?
Hey, just wondering if this is for bone-in ribs. I just threw my boneless ribs in the pot and worry about overcooking them.
Thanks
Yes, bone in or boneless work fine!
We have a large family, so I was going to use this recipe for 6lbs of these ribs in my 8qt…do you have any suggestions for the time?
Do you think I could use this recipe with boneless skinless chicken thighs? Using chicken broth instead of course
I haven’t tried it, but I don’t see why not 🙂
I just had oral surgery and can’t chew much I just made this and these are so tender and tasty will be making this again.
Totally hooked
Making this for the second time because they were so good the first time. Only change is from frozen so hoping an hour is ok?
From frozen.. Bump the time about 10-12 minutes. PERFECT!
