MY Chinese Sticky Ribs (InstaPot)

Servings: 4

Servings: 4
Ingredients
  • 2 to 3 lbs of pork spare ribs
  • Lee Kum Kee Spare Rib Sauce
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • S&P to taste
  •  
  • 1 cup of water for Instant Pot
Steps
  1. Rinse and pat dry ribs
  2. Cut into 4 to 6 rib sections so that they'll stand vertically in the pressure cooker
  3. Lightly S&P both sides
  4. Coat rib section (top, bottom, sides) with LKK Spare Rib Sauce
  5. Allow to marinate at least 30 min (very light flavor using this time - OK to go longer)
  6. Add water to pressure cooker
  7. Slice garlic cloves in ½ and add to pressure cooker
  8. Place trivet at the bottom of the pressure cooker and stand ribs so that the bones are vertical
  9. Cook on high pressure for 23 minutes + 10 min natural release.   After 10 min natural release, release remaining pressure.
  10. Pre-heat toaster oven to broil, and drop rack lower so that the ribs are about 1 to 2 inches from broiler
  11. Place ribs over wire rack and baste with LKK rib sauce
  12. Allow sauce to caramelize and baste frequently until desired color and texture is achieved (about 5 to 8 more minutes).
Notes
  • Using 2.5 to 3 lbs of pork ribs, 23 min HP and 10 min NR left the meat perfect (tender, but not falling off the bone - good texture).
  • Not a priority since the flavors were distinct (meat flavor and sauce flavor were noticeably separate).   If more flavor is "needed" in the meat, consider a longer marination time or added ingredients to marinade in order to better penetrate the meat.
