I use a Power Pressure XL Cooker I bought thru QVC. Great deal 4 the size. Anyway, these ribs are thoroughly cooked (in a pressure cooker you have that peace of mind) AND they are juicy: the kind you dream off..fall-off-the-bone. The beauty of this is all the fat is gone off these rib -- left behind in the pressure cooker. U can make these ribs & the rest of the accompaniments & be SERVED in an hour. Unbelievable. Note the cook time is 40 min but w/ the additional 10 minutes of time left in the pressure cooker while OFF --letting the pressure naturally dissapait = total cooktime 50min

yield 4 adults
prep time 10 Min
cook time 50 Min
method Pressure Cooker/Instant Pot

How To Make quick mango orange ribs

  • 1
    Remove the membrane off the back of the ribs, or have your butcher do it. That's what i do! cut the racks in half and put in large pr xl sized electric pressure cooker.
  • 2
    Scatter the onion slices in the pot over and between the ribs. I use vidalia onions but regular yellow onion is fine too. Vidalio are sweeter and less pungent.
  • 3
    Add rest of ingrediants together in a measuring cup, stir a bit, then pour over the ribs.
  • 4
    Seal the pressure cooker and select the poultry/meat button and select a time of 40 minutes. Fix the rest of your side dishes for the meal!
  • 5
    When complete, let sit for 10 minutes, then open pressure cooker. Some leftover steam may still need to be released. That's fine. Open it after u release and using some tongs carefully lift each 1/2 rack up and put on a broiling pan with the back side of the ribs facing up. The ribs are already falling off the bone but u want them to appear racks when served. Also it may require 2 broiling pans. Discard all the liquid in the pressure cooker.
  • 6
    Squeeze Sweet Baby Rays bbq sauce on the back of the ribs, and spread with a basting brush, coating the meat and the bones and inbtw the bones...even the tips of the bones for a finished bbq look. Put under broiler set to 500 and broil for about 5 minutes. Remove and flip the ribs carefully and repeat process. I actually like to drop the oven rack on lower from the broiler so that this process takes a tiny bit longer, but i have more control. You know your oven! I like them cooked until just when starting to turn a little hint of black. Quickly remove. Let sit about 10 minutes or so. You want them too cool down just a bit so they can be handled. (Of course u can cook on your outdoor or indoor grill for this whole step!)

    Serve with coleslaw and bbq baked beans. Corn bread if you want to round it out even more.
