I got some lovely boneless pork ribs the other day and I decided to cook them in the pressure cooker. I took the lesson I learned from the roasts I did awhile back and I set it for 90 min instead of using the Pork setting. I am annoyed by these settings. Why even make a Pork or Beef setting if you aren't going to make it long enough to actually cook anything? The ribs turned out fall apart tender, moist and delicious!!
To be honest there isn't really a recipe because it's just the meat and BBQ sauce. Of course you can use whatever BBQ sauce you like.
Pork Ribs - Pressure Cooker
3 lbs pork ribs, boneless
1-18 oz bottle BBQ sauce (Sweet Baby Ray's Sweet & Spicy)
1/2 cp water
Place the meat in the pressure cooker. Add the water to the cooker. Put about 1/3 cp of the BBQ sauce in a small dish and then pour the rest of the BBQ sauce over the ribs. Seal the pot, set it for 90 min and start it.
When it's done remove the ribs from the cooker and put them in a bowl. Pour the reserved sauce over the cooked ribs and toss gently to coat with the sauce.
BBQ Pork Ribs with Fried Potatoes and Watermelon
This was the first watermelon of the summer and it was perfect. Crisp and delicious!! I love me some watermelon.
For dessert I made a Brownie Cookie or a Brownkie. We got one from Pizza Hut a few weeks ago and it was delicious so Tim was asking me to make one at home. He kept talking about how good it would be with vanilla ice cream. Obviously I didn't make it in the pressure cooker but it an experiment that turned out really well. I couldn't find a recipe online that I liked. There were only two that were even done the way I wanted. Most of the recipes were a layer of cookie and a layer of brownie but I wanted it to be more intermingled than that.
Brownie Cookie - Brownkie or Cooknie
1 Betty Crocker Milk Chocolate Brownie Mix
1 Betty Crocker Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix
1 13x9 cake pan
Set the oven to 350* and put the dry cake pan it in to warm. Prepare each mix as directed on the package. Remove the warm pan from the oven and spray it lightly with cooking spray. Pour the brownie mix in the cake pan and let it sit a couple of minutes. The warm pan will help the mix spread out evenly. You need an even layer of brownie.
Crumble the cookie mix and drop it in bits across the top of the brownie mix. It doesn't exactly crumble in the way something dry does but try to keep it in small clumps as it drops on the brownie. It won't cover the brownie completely but you don't want it to. The top will be very uneven but it will even out as you bake it.
Put it in the oven and bake 30 min or until a toothpick comes out clean. The edge should be quite soft to the touch when hot, they will firm up as it cools.
Using the mixes makes this so easy to make and they were fabboo!
