Smoked up some country style ribs on the Mak 1 star for 5 hours with hickory pellets. Texture and tenderness was wonderful. From now on I plan on cooking CSR’s with applewood. The hickory was good but a little too smoky. Thanks for looking!

Whats unfortunate about it everything doesn't have to be wrapped in fact I don't wrap anything.

I am back and forth on wrapping. I like a crust on meat... not jerky. I can sometimes hit the right balance perfectly and I did on this cook but certainly not all.
 
I did rub only and no sauce. I was going to foil them but got busy unfortunately

I never wrapped my CSRs when I did them on the gasser.
They went straight to the plate.
These days, my wife only wants her CSRs cooked in the Instant pot with sauerkraut.

Bking fine looking plate of CSRs you got going on. Between the single digit temps, wind, snow, rain and me being personally under the weather. My pits have been on disabled list. Looking forward to getting back in the game, and those ribs might just get me back early.

Point for sure.

Chris,
Sorry to hear that you are under the weather.
Hope you get to feeling better soon.

Thanks SHS, I'm down to one box of tissue now and only a couple of Tylenol. I'm almost ready to come off the DL but not quite. Liquid diets are only tasty for so long.

That’s interesting with the instant pot . How do you season them? Does it take on sauerkraut flavor? How is it served?

It is a smple recipe without alot frills and extras.

Season the ribs with SPOG and thyme, brown the ribs in some olive oil in the Instant Pot using the sautee setting.
When all the ribs are browned, deglaze the pot with apple juice or beer or water.
Add sauerkraut (we like to add sliced onions and chopped apple) place ribs on top of kraut, and add one cup of beer.
Program the Instant Pot for high pressure at 30 minutes and fast release at end of cooking.

The ribs will take on a little bit of sauerkraut flavor.

As for serving, we just leave them in the pot and use a slotted spoon for removal.
Pretty good with either boiled or mashed potatoes.

Sounds fantastic! I like using my instant pot. I mainly use it for soups.

Oh yeah!! Soup!

I forgort to add to use a 16oz jar of kraut or two 8oz cans.
