Can you overcook ribs in an Instant Pot?
Yes, you can overcook ribs in an Instant Pot which is just not a good thing- the meat will be so tender that it will fall apart with just a little poke. . Often you can overcook it while you are trying to tenderize the ribs by pressure cooking. The safest bet is to pressure cook it for 6 minutes. For me, this is the sweet spot. When you have thick meat, for twelve minutes.
You can always check the meat after the said time is up, and check if the tenderness is good for you. You can always add pressure cooking time and add cook the meat again.
