Description

This frozen short ribs Instant Pot recipe is a delicious and easy way to make a flavorful meal. It requires minimal effort and time, but yields a hearty, satisfying meal. Short ribs are slow cooked in a flavorful mixture of beer, garlic, and herbs, creating a delectable, juicy dish that will have your guests asking for seconds. The Instant Pot does all the work for you, with little mess or fuss. After cooking, the short ribs are served with crusty bread, mashed potatoes, and a side salad for a complete meal.

Prep Time

This recipe does not require much prep time. All you need to do is thaw out the short ribs, peel and mince the garlic, and measure out the other ingredients. This should take no more than 10 minutes.

Cook Time

This dish cooks in the Instant Pot for 25 minutes. After the cooking time is done, the Instant Pot needs to naturally release the pressure for 10 minutes before you can open the lid and serve the food.

Ingredients

To make this recipe, you will need:

  • 2 pounds frozen short ribs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can (12 ounces) dark beer
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

1. Begin by thawing out the short ribs. Place them in the refrigerator overnight if possible, or thaw them in the microwave according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

2. Heat the olive oil in the Instant Pot on the sauté setting. Add the diced onion and minced garlic and sauté until the vegetables are softened and fragrant, about 3 minutes.

3. Add the beer, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, bay leaves, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.

4. Place the thawed short ribs in the Instant Pot. Make sure they are evenly distributed in the pot and submerged in the liquid.

5. Close the lid and lock it. Make sure the valve is set to “sealing”. Select the “meat/stew” setting and set the timer to 25 minutes.

6. After the cooking time is done, allow the Instant Pot to naturally release the pressure for 10 minutes. Then, unlock the lid and remove the short ribs.

7. Serve the short ribs with crusty bread, mashed potatoes, and a side salad. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and enjoy!

Equipment

To make this recipe, you will need an Instant Pot, a cutting board, a knife, a large spoon, and a serving platter.

Notes

This recipe can be made with boneless or bone-in short ribs. If you use bone-in short ribs, the cooking time may need to be adjusted.

Recipe Tips

For extra flavor, try adding a few tablespoons of tomato paste to the liquid before cooking. You can also add other herbs and spices to the mixture, such as rosemary or paprika.

If you’re short on time, you can skip the sauté step and just add all of the ingredients to the Instant Pot at once. This will reduce the cooking time by a few minutes.

To make this recipe vegetarian, substitute the short ribs with a plant-based protein, such as cooked lentils or tempeh. Reduce the cooking time to 15 minutes.
