Instructions
Make it Now
Season your ribs with salt and pepper.
Place the remaining ingredients into the liner and stir unil combined.
Add the ribs into the sauce mixture.
Secure the lid, place the release knob to sealing.
Set the Instant Pot to pressure cook, high pressure for 45 minutes.
Allow for 10-15 minutes of natural pressure release, then quick release the remaining pressure.
Remove the ribs from the pot and serve with dinner sides. I also like to put a tablespoon of the juices onto the meat for serving, like an au jus.
Make it a Freezer Meal
Place all of the ingredients into a gallon size freezer zip bag.
Label the bag and freeze flat.
Freeze for up to 4 months
Thaw overnight in the fridge before cooking, then follow the "make it now" instructions above.
