SMOKEY JOES BBQ SAUCE RECIPES

Steps:

• Add Sauce Mixture ingredients to the pot and whisk to combine. Add ribs and toss to coat.
• Secure the lid, making sure the vent is closed.
• Using the display panel select the MANUAL or PRESSURE COOK function*. Use the +/- keys and program the Instant Pot for 8 minutes.
• When the time is up, let the pressure naturally release for 15 minutes, then quick-release the remaining pressure.
• Carefully remove the ribs from the pot to a large bowl and cover loosely with foil, reserving juices.
• Strain cooking liquid to remove solids (press solids to extract as much flavor as possible). Discard solids.
• Use a fat separator or spoon to skim fat from the liquid mixture. Discard fat.
• Return braising liquid to the pot. Select the SAUTE function and adjust to MORE or HIGH. Cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced to a glaze, about 2 1/2 cups (20-25 minutes).
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Set a wire rack over a foil-lined, rimmed baking sheet. Pour 1/2 cup water in baking sheet (helps to prevent smoking).
• Coat half the ribs in the glaze and arrange on the rack, bone-side up. Roast 5-7 minutes, then flip and roast an additional 5-7 minutes until well-caramelized. Transfer to serving dish and repeat with remaining ribs.
• Serve, passing remaining glaze as a dipping sauce.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the Steak Mixture ingredients just until uniform. Do not overmix. Shape into 6 patties and let rest for at least 10 minutes for breadcrumbs to absorb flavor.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the Sauce Mixture ingredients.
• Add butter to the Instant Pot. Using the display panel select the SAUTÉ function.
• When butter melts, brown the steaks on both sides, 2-3 minutes per side. Meat may not be cooked through. Do not crowd the pot--you will have to work in batches. Transfer browned meat to a shallow dish and cover loosely with foil.
• Add onions and mushrooms to the pot and Sauté until onions begin to soften, 3-4 minutes.
• Add sauce mixture to the pot and deglaze by using a wooden spoon to scrape the brown bits from the bottom of the pot.
• Layer the steaks back into to the pot on top of the vegetables.
• Turn the pot off by selecting CANCEL, then secure the lid, making sure the vent is closed.
• Using the display panel select the MANUAL or PRESSURE COOK function*. Use the +/- keys and program the Instant Pot for 15 minutes.
• When the time is up, let the pressure naturally release for 15 minutes, then quick-release the remaining pressure.
• Carefully remove the steaks from the pot to a shallow dish and cover loosely with foil, reserving juices.
• In a small bowl, mix together cornstarch and cold water. Stir into the pot until thickened, returning to SAUTÉ mode as needed. Adjust seasonings.
• Serve the steak topped with gravy over noodles, spaghetti squash or mashed potatoes.
