      Yes you can, You would have to cook it in your oven for about three hours or until meat is ready to slide off the bone with a fork, make sure there’s ALWAYS LIQUID or water in the pan, keep a good eye on it keep the lid tight, temperature about 300 or 325,

    I made these ribs tonight for dinner. Left off the bbq sauce – we all loved it! The rub was really good and the ribs were falling off the bone, and they had great flavor. Thanks for the recipe!

    OK, I made this tonight, it was falling off the bone delish, but not brown as pictured! My first Instant Pot dish, it is clearly pressure cooked. Very tasty! But not brown. Doesn’t matter! Enjoy!

    I made these on NYD with my new surprise Instant Pot Duo—wow! I cannot believe how flavorful and fall-off-the-bone tender these ribs are! I am a convert with my first recipe! Amazing. I used baby back ribs, Yukon Gold potatoes, and Snow Floss Kraut in the bag.
