PRESSURE-COOKER SHORT RIBS



Pressure-Cooker Short Ribs image

We love the way the Instant Pot or pressure cooker promotes silky, falling-off-the-bone texture for braise-worthy cuts like short ribs. Here, the ribs are paired with an inspired combination of ingredients (miso paste, whole coriander seeds, and apricots) for a dish that's easy -- but memorable enough for special occasions. This recipe appears in our cookbook "Martha Stewart's Pressure Cooker" (Clarkson Potter).

Instant Pot Korean Style Short Ribs image

The Instant Pot® makes it quick and easy to enjoy rich, tender short ribs, but it's the sauce that makes this dish shine. Inspired by the Korean pantry, it combines gochujang, ginger, garlic, brown sugar, sesame oil and fresh pear, and gets reduced to a wonderfully sweet and sticky glaze. The cucumber and scallion salad makes for a cool and crunchy accompaniment.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons gochujang (Korean red chile paste)
2 tablespoons peeled and grated ginger
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1/2 pear, peeled, cored and grated on the large holes of a box grater
2 cloves garlic, finely grated
3 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 pounds 1/4- to 1/2-inch-thick crosscut bone-in beef short ribs (flanken style)
2 scallions, green part only, sliced thinly on the diagonal, plus additional for serving
1 hothouse cucumber, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
1 to 2 teaspoons gochugaru (Korean red chile flakes) or 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds, plus additional for serving
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
Kosher salt
Serving suggestion: Steamed rice

Steps:

  • Whisk together the soy sauce, gochujang, ginger, brown sugar, pear, garlic, 2 tablespoons sesame oil and 1/4 cup water in a 6-quart Instant Pot®. Place the short ribs on top and follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 25 minutes (see Cook's Note). After the pressure cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick release cycle is complete. Be careful of any remaining steam and unlock and remove the lid. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the meat to a large bowl, then cover and set aside.
  • Set the pot to saute on high for 30 minutes and let reduce until the liquid is thick and glazy, about 15 minutes (about 1/2 cup of sauce will remain). Set the pot to off and transfer the reduced sauce to the meat, then toss to coat.
  • Meanwhile, toss the scallions, cucumber, rice vinegar, gochugaru, sesame seeds, granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt and remaining tablespoon sesame oil in a medium bowl and cover and chill until ready to serve.
  • For charred short ribs (optional): Position an oven rack as high as it can go in the oven and preheat the broiler to high. Transfer the glazed ribs to a rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet and broil until lightly charred on both sides, about 1 minute per side.

Tips:

  • For the most tender and flavorful short ribs, choose ribs that are well-marbled with fat. Look for ribs with a good amount of meat between the bones.
  • Trim excess fat from the ribs, but don't remove all of it. The fat helps to add flavor and moisture to the ribs.
  • Season the ribs generously with your favorite BBQ rub. You can use a store-bought rub or make your own.
  • Sear the ribs in a hot skillet or grill before pressure cooking them. This step helps to develop a nice crust on the ribs and lock in the flavor.
  • Add a cup of liquid to the pressure cooker along with the ribs. This can be water, broth, or beer.
  • Cook the ribs on high pressure for 30-45 minutes, or until they are fall-off-the-bone tender.
  • If you want to thicken the sauce, you can make a slurry of cornstarch and water and add it to the pressure cooker after the ribs have finished cooking.
  • Serve the ribs with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, coleslaw, or baked beans.

Conclusion:

Pressure cooker BBQ short ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple steps, you can have tender, flavorful ribs that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy BBQ meal, give pressure cooker BBQ short ribs a try!
