Hey there!
Hope this post finds you well during this time! Before you knock this recipe, hear me out. This method for cooking ribs is non-traditional but it is very easy, fast, and delicious!
I use baby back ribs here (about 2 pounds). The first step after mixing all the spices needed for the dry rub is pat drying the ribs with paper towels.
Once the ribs are dry, rub the dry rub mixture all over the ribs front and back. Use up all of the dry rub mixture.
Put the broth, apple cider vinegar, onion, garlic, and liquid smoke in the pot. Using the wire rack, place the ribs top facing out on the rack. For 2 pounds or less, 20-23 minutes will be enough on high-pressure. Let it naturally release pressure for about 10 minutes.
The final step after the ribs are out of the insta pot is lathering in a good BBQ sauce. Once you do that, broil the ribs for about 5 minutes. This will make them crispy and taste as if they were made in a BBQ or smoker.
Serve with your favorite side dishes! Enjoy!
