This melt in your mouth tender Instant Pot Short Ribs recipe is super easy to make and ready in less than hour. The perfect comfort food recipe to prepare for dinner any day of the week

Incredibly Tender Instant Pot Short Ribs

The year 2018 started rocky on a personal level.

But now that the healing part has begun I am craving comfort foods that will lift my spirit.

Feeding a lot of people at once hasn’t always been easy, but recipes like Instant Pot Short Ribs nourish a crowd without breaking much sweat.

I promise you that they will be flavorful, hearty, and falling off the bone in less than an hour.

In the seasoning department, I kept it simple since it’s a kid-friendly item but of course, feel free to add your seasonings and spices.

Serve it with creamy mashed potatoes, rice, quinoa, or even risotto and it will feel like a hug from mom.

Sometimes I love to shred it with 2 forks and just eat it with the sauce in a bowl or inside 2 toasted slices of bread with arugula. If you have leftovers, try the sandwich version. You won’t be disappointed.

Ever since I got my Instant Pot, I started making tons of recipes that otherwise I didn’t have time for.

Wild Rice used to take 2 hours to cook, but now I get it done in less than 30 minutes. The same goes with short ribs. They were either too tough or completely dissolved in sauce. Now they are perfect in texture and taste.

You can, off course change the recipe to suit your needs/tastes. I added root veggies to compliment the sauce and the beef, but feel free to add additional ones.

I recommend opening the fridge and throwing in the pot whatever veggie may be expiring soon.

I hope you can try this delicious Instant Pot Short Ribs at home. If you do, please upload a pic on Instagram and tag me @Livingsweetmoments or use the hashtag #LivingSweet. I promise to repost it.
