A go-to family favorite is her rendition of baby back ribs made tender in the instapot then finished on the grill and slathered with bottled sauce. e ribs are a throwback to the days when she and husband, Josh, now a veterinarian, waited tables for spending money in college. "In undergraduate, grad school, vet school and even my first two years of teaching school, we waited tables at Lone Star. I made more money waiting tables than I did as a teacher," she said. "Some of our favorite meals, cheese fries, babyback ribs, steaks and baked sweet potatoes, we do based on how we learned to cook at Lone Star." For her instapot ribs, she starts with bone broth, minced garlic, bay leaves and fresh herbs such as thyme or rosemary or whatever is on hand. She sprinkles the ribs with kosher salt and steakhouse seasoning. "e recipe will call for measure- ments, but I'm not a measurement person because it really doesn't matter," she said, pouring broth in from a carton. "is is just your liquid for the bottom so that it doesn't dry up." e ribs go into the instapot for 30 minutes. at doesn't include the time that it takes for the instapot to build up to the required pressure. Total cooking time is about 45 minutes, giving her time to whip up potatoes, steamed vegetables or whatever is on the family menu that night. She likes the fact that cleanup is a breeze with the instapot. The instant pot has many functions: electric pressure cooker, rice cooker, steamer, yogurt maker, sauté pan, slow cooker and warmer.
