Pressure Cooker Korean Style Barbecue Country Pork Ribs
So, I’ve been editing my new cookbook, which is due out soon and trying to manage my Blog.
It’s not an easy task for a one person operation. (Okay, I do have someone make my pins and help with submitting round up recipes, but other than that, it’s, just little ol techy challenged me.)
Luckily, I still have over 30 Instant Pot and Pressure Cooker and Air Fryer recipes already created, cooked and photographed by me, just waiting to post.
But, we need to eat too. I posted this question in my group and the answer was overwhelmingly, post it anyway.
“I don’t always cook with the intention of making a blog post. I like to play around in the kitchen and just enjoy cooking without worrying about taking photos, measuring what I do and just be in the moment. It’s late and we were hungry and Ed had taken out some country pork ribs, so without a plan, dinner was ready and we were eating in less than 30 minutes. Should I make this into a recipe post? I have no process photos, just this one and one more that is similar.”
Yesterday, I asked Ed to take out a package of meat from the freezer and I would cook.
Had no idea what he took out.
So, when dinner time rolled around, I saw it was a package of Country Pork Chops. We like to buy in bulk and then use our FoodSaver to package up into portions.
A while ago, I had made yummy Korean Chicken Wings using a bottle of Trader Joe’s Korean BBQ Sauce and it was fantastic.
I used the same sauce for Short Ribs too (pictured above) and they were also fantastic. I haven’t posted that recipe yet.
We did a lot of fishing in Florida and would buy Flanken Cut Ribs to make my Pressure Cooker Korean Kalbi Ribs recipe.
That was before I dissected the Marinade and created my very own from scratch.
We used to buy CJ Bulgogi Marinade Korean BBQ Sauce in packs of four from Amazon, as it is a better deal than in my local Korean market.
When I saw the Trader Joe’s brand, I was curious. It was super duper good. I’m linking up the CJ Bulgogi Marinade Korean BBQ Sauce Brand because it’s easier to order on Amazon and equally as good…maybe even better.
Since we still had 1/2 a bottle left, I thought, this is easy and super fast.
The result was so much yum.
I did add a couple of large Onions to the Instant Pot or Pressure Cooker.
Mashed Potatoes sounded really good too, sooooooo
grabbed the smaller pan from my Stack N’ Cook Stainless Steel Pan Set.
I partially peeled some potatoes and cut them up and put them in the Pan.
I put the Pan on a Tall Legged Trivet and used the lid with the vent holes.
Here is my recipe for Pressure Cooker Mashed Potatoes.
That was it! Easy peasy. Three ingredients for delicious Pressure Cooker Korean Style Barbecue Country Pork Ribs.

For another “Dump and Push Start” recipe, check out my Pressure Cooker Balsamic Ginger Chicken and my Pressure Cooker Cuban Black Bean Quinoa Bowls recipes.
So, the moral of the story, keep some good bottled Marinade in your pantry for when you want a super quick meal.

You say you created your own marinade from scratch. Can you share that?
Jeanie says
This was one of the best IP recipes I have made! I followed the recipe almost exactly. The only changes I made were cutting the recipe in half and adding a potato, chopped in bite-size pieces, in with the other ingredients. Another time, I will reduce the sauce to make it thicker because it’s so good! I’d never used the Korean BBQ marinade before and love the flavor. Another great recipe from you!
Jill Selkowitz says
Thank you, Jeanie. Jill

I made this for my wife while she was at the gym after work. I love easy recipes like this! As it was just two of us, I used two ribs, cut in half, A whole onion and 2/3rd cup of the Trader Joe’s BBQ sauce. I have an instant pot mini and it worked great. As my ribs were still a bit frozen, I added 5 minutes to the cooking time. I served it with Japanese green beans and yellow rice. She said this recipe is a keeper! We liked that the sauce was not heavy BBQ, but a light flavor with a touch of kick. I can’t wait to cook this for my two boys!
Jill says
Thank you, Tom. I am happy both of you enjoyed this recipe. Jill
Tita Terry says
Super easy and super duper delicious! I used CJ Bulgogi sauce which I always have on hand. I went the extra step of reducing the sauce and while reducing the sauce I placed the ribs under the broiler! Rice is always my go to side, being Filipino and all?
Rosemary says
Do you think I can just cut up potatoes and put tem right in the pot along with the pork and sauce? Would they cook like that?
Jill says
Yes, that would be delish! Jill
Chris S. says
Can you post the recipe? I was really hoping to make this tomorrow for dinner. Sounds absolutely delicious
Patricia says
I purchased pork rib chops from Costco, they were really thick, so I used more Korean barbecue sauce then recommended in your recipe. Otherwise I followed your recipe exactly. The chops are So thick, I’m wondering if I need to cook them longer? Because When I removed ribs from the pot they are cooked through, But definitely not fork tender. Do they need more time under pressure? Or will I turn them into leather?
