Tender beef short ribs made in the instant pot seasoned to perfection with onions, spicy peppers, cilantro and more!
Hey y’all! It’s been a minute since I’ve shared a Tex Mex recipe. I think the last one that I shared was my Tex Mex Corn Casserole recipe, which so many of you tried & loved! This time around we’re going to turn it up a few notches and make some fall off of the bone Tex Mex Beef Short Ribs, and we’re making it in the Instant Pot (yup… I’m FINALLY going to share a pressure cooker recipe folks!)
These Tex Mex Beef Short Ribs are packed with flavor, and only take 1 hour and 20 minutes in the Instant Pot! Once done, they are literally falling off of the bone!
Pair this Tex Mex Beef Ribs recipe with my some southern cornbread!

Thanks Donna!
These look so good! I love the video!
Thanks Shelly!
Are you sure the cook time is right? I’ve fixed a beef roast in my pressure for only 25 minutes.
Yes, I am sure. I’ve made it several times. I like the meat to be extremely tender.
Would this work as well in a slow cooker on high for 4 hours? Thank you
Sure will! 🙂
Thank you!!! You answered the exact question I had! I can’t wait to try this!!
Thanks Rosie. I’ll try this one out as soon as I get to the other ones.
Just bought an instant pot, can you post more recipes to cook with it?
Absolutely!
Looks great! I’ll check it out after I get to the others.
Is that the meat time plus1hour20 min
I used the meat setting and cooked for 1 hour 20 minutes.
Should I do natural pressure release or quick pressure release? Also, should the pressure be set to Less, Normal, or More?
I usually do a quick release. It was on normal setting.
Hello Rosie, I came across the recipe & wondering if I can do this recipe in my Crockpot Express Crock. I wonder if the times & settings are pretty much the same?
You can do this in any pressure cooker.
