Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 pound slab of pork baby back ribs
- 1 Tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1 Tablespoon onion powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons pepper
- ½ Tablespoon cayenne pepper
- ½ Tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 Tablespoons liquid smoke
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- ½ cup water
- ½ cup apple cider vinegar
- barbecue sauce of your choice for topping
Instructions
- Rinse ribs and pat dry with paper towels.
- In a medium bowl, combine all dry ingredients.
- Add liquid smoke and olive oil to form a wet rub.
- Use gloved hands to rub mixture on all areas, top and bottom, of the rib.
- Pour apple cider vinegar and water into the Instant Pot and put rack in place.
- Place entire rack of ribs into the Instant Pot, curving them to fit.
- Place lid on pot and cook on high pressure for 24 minutes using a natural release.
- Slather on barbecue sauce of your choice and cut into portions.
Notes
- Be careful when removing the ribs from the Instant Pot as they will be very tender.
- When cutting the ribs into portions, use the sharpest knife you have as the meat will be very tender. A sharp knife will make it easier to cut through without actually knocking the meat off the bones.
- Store leftover baby back ribs in an air-tight container kept in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
