Pressure Cooker Baby Back Ribs Recipes

Steps:

• Cut ribs into serving pieces.
• Mix spices together to create a dry rub. Apply the dry rub to the ribs.
• Heat oil in pressure cooker and brown the ribs on all sides.
• Insert cooking rack in pressure cooker, add beer, and load with ribs, not to exceed manufacturer's maximum fill line.
• Place over high heat until control jiggles. Reduce heat and cook 35 minutes.
• Let cooker depressurize naturally. Remove rack from cooker (you can drain some of the liquid if you like thicker sauce) and add barbecue sauce, heat until simmering. Simmer for 10-15 minutes.

Steps:

• Combine water, vinegar, and liquid smoke in the pot of a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Place rack in the bottom of the pot.
• Season baby back pork ribs with salt and pepper on both sides. Cut rack in half. Place ribs in a teepee formation onto the rack. Pour a little barbeque sauce onto each half and let run down the sides. Close and lock the lid.
• Select Meat setting according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 30 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Wait 15 minutes before releasing pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking pan with aluminum foil. Place ribs onto the prepared baking pan and slather with barbeque sauce.
• Cook under the broiler for 5 minutes. Remove and immediately add more sauce.

Steps:

• Combine kosher salt, brown sugar, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and black pepper in a small bowl for the spice rub.
• Cut the rack of ribs into 4 equal portions. Rub all sides of each piece with spice rub.
• Pour broth into a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Add ribs in a teepee formation. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 30 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove lid. Move ribs to the baking sheet using tongs. Brush ribs on all sides with barbeque sauce.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 7 minutes. Turn ribs and continue baking until meat pulls away easily from the bone, about 7 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Place the metal rack in your cooker and add 1/2 cup of water (I used 1 cup as the manufacturer of my electric cooker recommends).
• If your cooker is large enough you can bend the racks around in a circle. Otherwise cut into sections and stand them upright in the cooker.
• Lock the lid in place.
• Bring to 15psi (high pressure in electric cooker) and cook for 12 minutes.
• Remove from heat and use quick release method to depressurize.
• When pressure drops, carefully open lid and use long tongs to remove ribs.
• Cover with sauce by dipping in sauce in a shallow pan, or basting well as you broil or BBQ the ribs to complete.
