With its innovative technology and efficient cooking process, you can enjoy tender and juicy pork ribs in a fraction of the time it takes to cook them traditionally. Let’s dive into the step-by-step process of cooking these delectable ribs in your Power Pressure Cooker XL.

What You’ll Need:

  • 1 rack of pork ribs
  • 2 cups of your favorite barbecue sauce
  • 1 cup of water
  • 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon of onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Start by preparing your pork ribs. Remove the silver skin from the back of the ribs by sliding a butter knife under the membrane and pulling it off. This step ensures that your ribs will be tender and flavorful.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. This rub will add a delicious depth of flavor to your ribs.
  3. Rub the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the ribs, making sure to massage it into the meat for maximum flavor penetration.
  4. Place the rack of ribs into the Power Pressure Cooker XL, bone side down. Pour in the water, making sure not to submerge the ribs completely. The water will create steam, which will help tenderize the meat.
  5. Secure the lid on the Power Pressure Cooker XL and set it to the “Meat/Stew” mode. Adjust the cooking time to 25 minutes.
  6. Once the cooking time is up, allow for a natural release for about 10 minutes, and then carefully perform a quick release to release any remaining steam.
  7. Gently remove the cooked ribs from the pressure cooker and place them on a baking sheet.
  8. Switch your oven to “Broil” mode and place the baking sheet with the ribs on the top rack. Brush barbecue sauce generously over the ribs, covering both sides.
  9. Place the baking sheet back into the oven under the broiler for about 3-5 minutes, or until the sauce is caramelized and slightly charred.
  10. Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing them into individual servings.
  11. Serve your tender and flavorful pork ribs with additional barbecue sauce on the side, if desired.
