• Pressure cook on high for 30 minutes.
• Release the pressure, give it a good stir and taste to see if needs more salt.
• Pressure cook for an addition 20 minutes on high and it should be done.

INSTANT POT BARBECUE BEANS

Steps:

• Put the bacon in a 6- to 8-quart Instant Pot; set to sauté on medium heat. Cook, stirring, until the bacon is crisp and the fat is rendered, about 5 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons fat from the pot.
• Add the onion and 1 teaspoon each salt and black pepper to the Instant Pot. Cook, stirring, until the onion is soft and translucent, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the paprika and cayenne; cook 30 seconds. Add the broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon. Turn off the sauté function. Stir in the beans, brown sugar, molasses, vinegar, tomato paste, bourbon and mustard.
• Put on the lid, making sure the steam valve is in the sealing position. Set to pressure-cook on high for 10 minutes. When the time is up, carefully turn the steam valve to the venting position and let the pressure release. Carefully remove the lid. Set the pot to sauté on medium heat; cook until the beans thicken slightly, about 5 minutes. Stir in the reserved bacon.

EASY RANCH STYLE BEANS RECIPE (INSTANT POT, SLOW COOKER OR STOVE TOP)

Steps:

• Place tomatoes/sauce, onion, garlic, molasses, vinegar, and 2 cups of beef broth in a blender. Puree until smooth.
• Rinse and sort pinto beans.
• If cooking on the stove (or on low in the crock pot - I do NOT do this step when using the Instant Pot) do a quick soak - put beans in pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil for 10 minutes. Turn stove off, cover and let sit for 1 hour. Drain.
• Combine beans, pureed mixture, 4 more cups of broth, salt, both paprikas, cumin, and oregano in your cooking device.
• Cook until done. Check and see if more salt is needed.
• Instant Pot: Cook on high pressure for 25-30 minutes. Quick release.
• Slow Cooker: Cook on high for 4-6 hours or cook on low for 8-10 hours. (Crock Pots are different, be sure to check doneness of the beans early the first time you make this.)
• Stove: (Do the quick soak first) Let beans simmer for 2-3 hours. Add additional broth or water if needed.

INSTANT POT COWBOY BEANS

Steps:

• First, get everything ready. Meat and vegetables chopped, spices ready, garlic pressed or minced, measuring cups, etc. This helps the process go smoothly.
• Turn on the pot's saute setting and add the ground beef, bacon, and onion. Cook until meat is no longer pink. You shouldn't have to drain it unless you use a fattier meat. Leave some of the fat in there.
• Add the garlic and stir. Let cook for 1 minute.
• Add the water and kielbasa.
• Add the remaining ingredients in order (except brown sugar), and do not stir, just push them down into the mixture to cover them.
• Put the lid on the pot and set the steam release knob to the Sealing position.
• Cancel the saute setting.
• Pressure the pressure cook/manual button or dial, and then the plus or minus button or dial to select 8 minutes.
• Watch the pot until it comes to pressure. This is a pretty thick mixture, so you want to make sure you don't get the burn message. If you do, remove the lid if the pin is still down. Otherwise, release any pressure first and get your wood spoon down in there and scrape the bottom. Add another 1/4 cup of water if it looks too thick, close the lid, and reset.
• When the cook time is finished, turn the pot off (so it doesn't go to warming), and let it sit undisturbed for 15 minutes (natural release). Then release the remaining pressure in short bursts, until you are sure no sauce will be spewing out with the steam.
• When the pin in the lid drops down, open and carefully mix up the beans. Stir in the brown sugar.
• Serve with corn bread.
