This is a long cooking stew that is perfect for making in a pressure cooker to cut down on time. The original recipe is by Emeril Lagasse and he suggests you serve with Basil Mashed Potatoes and Sauteed Fennel and Leeks, Recipe #412931. I must say, the flavor combination is extremely pleasing. Included are both the stove top cooking method as well as the adaptation for the pressure cooker.

Pressure Cooker Saucy Baby Back Ribs - Fast & Easy image

These ribs cook up fast and the meat melts in your mouth! I've only used beef ribs, my husband's preference, but you certainly could substitute pork ribs. The nutritional values would change. I adapted this recipe from a favorite slow cooker recipe. These are very saucy ribs, messy and delicious! My husband calls them AWESOME!

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef. Beef shanks are a great choice for this recipe because they are tough and full of flavor. They will become tender and fall-off-the-bone after being cooked in the pressure cooker.
  • Brown the beef shanks before cooking. This will help to develop their flavor and create a nice crust.
  • Use a variety of herbs and spices. This recipe uses a combination of rosemary, thyme, oregano, and bay leaves. You can also add other herbs and spices that you like, such as garlic, onion, or paprika.
  • Use a good quality red wine. The red wine will add flavor and depth to the sauce. Choose a wine that you would enjoy drinking on its own.
  • Cook the beef shanks on high pressure for 45 minutes. This will be enough time to make the beef shanks tender and fall-off-the-bone.
  • Let the beef shanks rest before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Barb's Pressure-Cooked Herb Red Wine Beef Shanks is a delicious and easy way to make a hearty and flavorful meal. The beef shanks are tender and fall-off-the-bone, and the sauce is rich and flavorful. This recipe is perfect for a special occasion or a casual weeknight dinner.
