Mealthy Tip: These ribs are great served as an appetizer, but they also make a great meal too. Cook up some fluffy white rice in the pressure cooker and a side of pickled vegetables, and you've got yourself a meal! If you follow a strict gluten-free diet, be sure the barbeque sauce that you choose doesn't have any gluten or forms of gluten in it.
