I made these great looking and tasting Back Ribs today in my new Indoor Pressure smoker/cooker, that my husband got me for Mother's Day. Judging from the taste & the length of time it took for them to cook I will be using it quite a bit this summer. That is 10 pounds of ribs on that platter that were cooked in 2 hours. It only takes 40 minutes to cook one slab. They are moist, tender, & juicy, and full of flavor, & falling off the bone good. My only negative complaint is that you can only cook one slab at a time. But at 40 minutes each, THAT'S NOT BAD. I LOVE THIS NEW ELECTRIC KITCHEN GADGET.

    This is a Mother's Day Gift that will keep on giving all year. My husband knows that I appreciate practical gifts that I can use, and this is certainly one of them. I can't praise it enough for it's efficiency, and performance. It is great for the busy mom that is always on the go, and needs dinner in a hurry. Sweet Baby Rays Honey Barbeque Sauce is my favorite, and the only one I prefer to use. This kitchen gadget is a great investment for time spent in the kitchen.
