Why are my ribs tough in the Instant Pot Pressure Cooker?
No matter what type of ribs you’re cooking you want your homemade ribs to be tender! But when your ribs come out tough, the culprit is almost always the cooking time.
Next time try adding a few minutes to the cook time. And try a natural release to release the remaining pressure rather than a quick release.
Another factor might be the size of the rack of ribs. The larger the cut of meat, the longer the cook time needs to be. Try adding a few minutes to the cooking time.
For the best results, you should also be cooking using high pressure to get the most tender cooked ribs possible.
One more tip is to remove the silver skin from the underside of the ribs before cooking. The easiest way is to grip the skin and give it a slight pull. It should peel off the back of the ribs easily.
