Instant Pot
Ingredients
1rackbaby back ribs(about 3 pounds)
salt and pepper
1/4cupbrown sugar
1/2cupapple cider vinegar
1cupBBQ sauce(your favorite)
Instructions
Season the ribs with a light, even sprinkling of salt and plenty of black pepper. Rub the brown sugar over the entire surface of the ribs. Do not remove the membrane on the back.
In your Instant Pot, pour in 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar and stand the ribs up in a half circle using the rack that the Instant Pot comes with. Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes, followed by 5 minutes of natural release. Next, carefully release the steam vent. Once the steam has completely released, open the pot and carefully transfer the ribs to a platter.
Brush generously with barbecue sauce and either grill the ribs or bake them at 450 degrees F/230 degrees C for another 15-20 minutes, brushing every 3-5 minutes with additional barbecue sauce until caramelized.
