Instant Pot Short Rib Ragu is the perfect hearty and COZY quick weeknight dinner that you will have on REPEAT this holiday season!
Can you even BELIEVE Christmas is in just a few days?! Jake and I will be hosting Christmas Eve dinner and other days this week so I love having a bunch of quick (but crowd pleasing) recipes on hand!
Like this Instant Pot Ragu! You know me. I am all about the Italian food from my Italian grandmother's influence growing up. And all of those old slow simmering sauce I have been turning into Instant Pot re-creations!
This is the one I love and use everyday-click here!
I used The Honest Bison's Short Ribs in this ragu and it came out PERFECT. So tender-literally fall off the bone! And all done in 30 minutes in the Instant Pot!
I served this over my favorite Paparadelle pasta- but choose your favorite! I recommend sticking to a long grain pasta for the sauce and short ribs to cling to in every bite!
Your family is going to love this new version of "spaghetti night!"
