If you are like me, the first time you try these luscious barbecued country ribs from a pressure cooker, you will be totally hooked! Nothing could be easier to make, and the end result is a country rib that is delicious, juicy, and oh, so fork tender. You can use my recipe for Bullseye Barbecue Sauce, or use your own brand. If you aren't using your pressure cooker to make ribs, you are missing out! Enjoy!

    Set timer for 45 minutes at high pressure. When beep sounds, let the pressure release naturally. Turn off. Remove lid, tilting it away from you. Allow pork to cool in the liquid. When the pork is cool enough to handle, remove and discard the bones and any fat. Strain the cooking liquid and reserve 1/2 cup.
