Simple Method, Big Flavor

This is one of those recipes where technique does all the work.

A good hard sear, a little seasoning, and time under pressure — that’s it. The result is tender, pull-apart pork with deep flavor and a simple BBQ finish.

This is not complicated cooking. This is doing the basics right.

And when you do, it delivers every time.


Recipe Overview

Ready in: 150 minutes
Prep time: 15 minutes
Serves: 6

Ingredients

  • 1 pack pork short ribs
  • 4 Tbsp Greg’s BBQ rub seasoning
  • 4 Tbsp olive oil
  • ¼ cup chicken stock
  • 3 Tbsp your favorite BBQ sauce
  • 1 onion, rough chopped

Preparation

  1. Season the ribs
    Coat pork short ribs evenly with BBQ rub.
  2. Sear the ribs
    Heat olive oil in a hot sauté pan.
    Sear ribs on all sides until deeply browned.
  3. Deglaze the pan (don’t skip this)
    Add chicken stock to the hot pan and scrape up all the flavor from the bottom.
  4. Load the pressure cooker
    • Add chopped onion to the bottom
    • Place seared ribs on top
    • Pour in the deglazed liquid
  5. Add BBQ sauce
    Brush ribs with BBQ sauce before sealing.
  6. Pressure cook
    Cook under pressure for 2 hours.

Chef Tips

  • A good hard sear builds the foundation of flavor
  • Deglazing pulls all that flavor into your cooking liquid
  • Don’t rush the browning — that’s where the depth comes from
  • Finish under broiler if you want a sticky BBQ glaze

Why This Recipe Works

This is straight technique:

sear → deglaze → pressure → finish

No shortcuts. No fluff.

Just solid cooking that turns a tougher cut into something tender and rich.
