Pressure cooker cooking
I just used a pressure cookier for the first time in my life. It's an electric
one and my first recipe was out of the user manual for barbecue ribs.
The recipe called for a 3 pound rack of ribs, cut into pieces and set on edge in
the cooker. A 16 ounce bottle of barbecue sauce (I chose Jack Daniels) and a
half cup of water. They cooked for 25 minutes.
I opened up the cooker at the end of the cycle and tried one. They came out just
about falling off the bone as I wanted them. So they were cooked properly. But
the flavor could have been better. The sauce seemed watered down.
Before I try it again, what could I have done differently? Can I omit the water?
My understanding of these cookers is they need the right amount of liquid. Is a
half cup of water that necessary?
Thanks for any suggestions.
