We are going to take pre-seasoned Costco ribs and cook them two ways. Instant Pot vs. low & slow in the oven. In the end, we ended with Fall-off-the-bone ribs in both cases with some interesting differences in terms of taste and texture. Let's see the results!
Instant Pot Instructions: Place 1 cup of water in instant pot. Place the trivet in. Put the ribs on the trivet. Put the lid on the instant pot and ensure your vent is closed. Set the timer to 20 mins on Manual. Allow for a full natural release. the whole process from heating up, cooking, and natural release will take about 1hr in total.
Oven Instructions: Pre-heat oven to 275F. place ribs on roasting tray and cover with tinfoil. when oven is ready place it in and then cook for 2hrs.
Finishing Instructions: With either Instant Pot or Oven method, after cooking, place ribs on roasting tray and slather with some barbeque sauce. Place in oven and then broil for about 3-4 minutes. Carefully watch this stage as the ribs can easily burn.
Take it out of the oven, and let rest covered for 3-5 mins. Cut and then Enjoy!
Verdict: We found the oven ribs were more tasty but perhaps slightly less tender than the Instant Pot ribs (although still tender). if you have the time, you can try the oven version based purely on flavour, but the Instant Pot version is still very good and will get the ribs on your plate in half the time and also consuming less energy.
