Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 rack pork baby back ribs
  • ¼ cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp liquid smoke
  • 4-6 tbsp dry rub seasoning
  • 1 cup water
  • ½ cup barbecue sauce ((your favorite brand))

Instruction

  • Remove the membrane from the underside of the ribs. Cut into 3 to 4 sections, or leave whole.
  • Mix liquid smoke and vinegar then brush on both sides of the ribs.
  • Sprinkle the dry rub generously on both sides and work into the meat.
  • Place a metal trivet (Instant Pot) or crisper basket (Foodi) into the pot. 
  • Pour the remaining vinegar/liquid smoke mixture along with a cup of water into the pot.
  • Place seasoned ribs on top of the trivet or crisper basket meat-side facing out, in a circle.
  • Select manual setting, adjust the pressure to high and set time for 20-30 minutes depending on how you like them.
  • For firm ribs, cook for 20 minutes. Cook for 30 minutes if you prefer tender, fall-off-the-bone ribs. Allow 10 minutes for pressure to build.
  • When finished cooking, quick-release pressure.
