It's funny how collard greens will go with anything, except maybe tofu. |

I had a double helping of greens and spilled some on my Mega Millions ticket. ;-) I ate a giant load of salad at olive garden yesterday. does that count? We like Olive Garden, too. I cooked baby back ribs in my *instant pot* last night. Basically, I cut the rack of ribs in half, put a rub on them, put them in the pot with some water and onions, and cooked them for 15 minutes. When I took them out of the pot, I cut them into individual ribs, brushed barbecue sauce on all sides, and baked them for about 10 minutes. They really came out tasty, and the meat just fell off the bones. The instant pots are terrific, especially if you don't want to spend a lot of time cooking. I'm going to try a corned beef brisket next. Usually that would take six to eight hours in the crock pot. Probably use this recipe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FE71b9wXUYI |

If you didn't have your order in or reservations months in advance, you were out of luck. We've been going to a local Chinese place, the House of Dynasty, on New Year's Eve for the past 25 or so years, since we got back from Germany in '92. Reservations have to be made well in advance. Don't think it's brought any special good luck though, although that may be what prompted my dog to turn the corner! |

A cup or two of water in the boating doesn't actually touch the ribs, which sit on a rack. The steam breaks down the ribs and cooks them. I wouldn't bother messing with the grill in this weather...so we end up with tasty ribs in less than an hour. |

In the oven wrapped for a while, then unwrap and sauce, back in to finish. It'll take longer but like you said, in this weather what else is there to do? Beats boiled meat, but to each his own. Don't those instant pots take nearly 20 minutes to come up to pressure to cook, then another 20 to cool back off to relieve pressure? That's what I've read in the reviews. Now you're at an hour plus prep, and you still haven't sauced or baked them. |

I have a pressure cooker and it only takes a few minutes to get it going, depending on how much water you put in and I can dump the pressure in less than a minute. I do veggies in there sometimes and the whole process is less than 5 minutes. Get the water boiling before you put the veggies in, just enough water to make steam and not boil dry. Dump in the veggies and some seasoning, maybe a little butter, close it up, the pressure will be up in seconds and cook a minute or two, then dump the pressure as fast as you can and open it up. They will still be bright green, still a little crunch but cooked and the seasoning punches its way inside. Broccoli takes a little longer than green beans but the process is the same. |

Ribs will be cooked on the Traeger. Amen. As will corned beef brisket or plain ol' beef brisket (which I've not gotten brave enough to try yet.) Piece of cake. You prep and start it, then do other things while it's cooking. Check on it every 3-4 hours, or however often your pellet hopper requires. Enjoy! Oh, don't do a CORNED beef brisket. Way too salty, even if you soak it. Ask me how I know. Plain brisket with plenty of rub. |
