Gluten Free Pressure Cooker BBQ Ribs

These gluten free BBQ Pressure Cooker Ribs are super delicious and fall off the bone!  The Instant Pot makes them easy for a weeknight dinner!

Gluten Free BBQ Pressure cooker or Instant Pot ribs are a quick weeknight meal! Did you get a pressure cooker or an Instant Pot this year? Are you looking for a fast and delicious meal for your family?

I made these quick and easy pressure cooker ribs in less than 45 minutes! It was one of those days when I couldn’t decide what to make for dinner. I have that problem too occasionally just like everyone else.

It was a lazy rainy day here and we had company in town. I couldn’t decide what I wanted to make for dinner. Should we go out to eat? What should we have? Finally, at about 3 p.m. it came to me Ribs! The only problem was they were in the freezer.

So, I quickly took them out of the freezer and put them in a zip-lock bag in a bowl full of cool water. I needed to thaw them a little so I could separate them.

What do I Need to Make These Gluten Free BBQ Pressure Cooker Ribs?

You will need a pressure cooker or an Instant Pot.

Pork Baby Back Ribs

BBQ sauce

Dry Rub seasoning

That’s it! Super easy!

I finished the ribs in our smoker to add the smoky flavor and make the sauce sticky, but you could finish them in the oven. You really don’t want to cook them, just heat up the sauce.

How Do I Make These Delicious-Looking Ribs? 

So glad you asked! I would love to share that with you! To begin, remove the silver skin from your ribs. It’s kinda gross, but it makes a huge difference in how tender your ribs turn out!

The best way I have found to remove it is to use a paper towel grab it and pull. It should just pull off

​

Here’s a YOUTUBE video on how to do it:

​Like I said it’s a little gross, but once you do it a few times it’s actually pretty easy.

Rub your ribs with your favorite dry rub. I used Paleo Powder.

Place your Ribs into your pressure cooker standing up so they curve around. You can cut them to fit.

Add about 1/2 of a cup of water to the bottom of the pot.

Put your lid on and turn the pressure cooker to manual pressure for 35 minutes. Now you have time to sit back and relax or make a side dish to go with the pressure cooker ribs.

Once the pressure cooker is finished, CAREFULLY release the pressure. Open your lid and your ribs will be very tender.

Carefully lift them onto a sheet pan and brush your favorite sauce on them.

You can put them in a 350-degree oven for about 10 minutes to get the sauce sticky. I put mine in my smoker for about 15 minutes on 225 just to get the smokey taste and make the sauce sticky.

They should be falling off of the bone and super yummy! I am seriously drooling right now typing this out. I might have to go heat some up…. hang on BRB. LOL.
