I’ve had a few summer squash & zucchini stir fry go sideways. Not gonna say by who, but we’ve been married for about 19 years.

I have committed the crime of ribs in the pressure cooker, rather than on the smoker.
But that bone pullback IS pretty legit…
I seasoned these like kalua pork, because I knew that would be received well in my household, but that’s also sticking some crimes together. Pulled off the membrane, trimmed off the silverskin, rubbed with the red salt, plastic wrapped in the fridge overnight, then int he pressure cooker for 27 minutes with 1 cup of a custom braising fluid I’ve created by combining the broth left behind from previous kalua pigs and smoked beef cheeks. Sprayed with wagyu tallow and air fried at 450 for 5 minutes to give it some crisp.
Which, yeah, these were “fall off the bone”, because I had to remove the bones from my kiddo because, again, they don’t work for their food, even IF “fall off the bone” is the third rib crime I’ve committed…

They look damn good! I have pressure cooked/ air fried a few things. I think it’s great way to cook things.

Thanks! It truthfully is a fantastic way to go. Pressure cooked food is delicious, but I just know it chaps a few elitists out there, haha. I rarely have the patience, and the pressure cooker delivers in that regard.

This admission turns out way better than the time I walked into the police station in the township where I worked, and told the chief that I have some warrants I’d like to clear up.
They were just for traffic (expired inspection), but his eyes got really big, like those eggs. Then his hand slowly moved to his gun. And he asked me bluntly “Are you on fucking drugs?”.
I wasn’t expecting any of that, but it kinda made sense in hindsight. We cleared things up at the magistrate, which he let me drive to, and ended up talking about fly fishing, cuz he liked the fly rods I built, which he found before letting me in my car.
So yeah, Ribs in the pressure cooker, crisped up and flavored very nicely! Yay! Sounds awesome! 
What is the kalua though? I’m not familiar with hawaiian flavors at all.

Hah! Apparently the police station works differently than the confessional.

It’s less a flavor and more a manner of preparation. Kalua pork is traditionally cooked in a pit and wrapped in banana leaves. But the seasoning employed is Hawaiian sea salt, which is alaea red salt, containing volcanic clay. We cheat by using pressure cookers and liquid smoke, but we get the legit salt. Given your sodium situation, it may be a bridge too far, but if the opportunity presents to sample some kalua pork sometime, it’s worth undertaking. It’s deliciously and wonderfully fatty and salty.
This may end up being a crime against nutrition. 21 duck eggs and 23 chicken eggs going in my make shift incubator.
I thought about @T3hPwnisher 's love for eggs and thought… I hope this works or I’m going to ruin a bunch of protein.

You & @EmilyQ are great for my cheat days. Once a week I replenish the stock. Whether its Pizza or Ah-So sauce, or now Kalua(ish) pork, it hits the spot.

I’ve lived on that for years at a time when I’d ride my bike to the grocery store. Load up the back pack with big bang for buck foods & ride home.
