BABY BACK RIBS - INSTANT POT

Steps:

• Start with the sauce. This is my recipe and I made a double batch for the ribs. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/other-sauce-spread/no-cook-bbq-sauce-by-maggie.html
• Cut the ribs into sections .. I did 3 or 4 bones per section. Salt and pepper to taste if desired.
• I sprayed the inside of my pot with cooking spray simply because I am so used to spraying when using a sugary sauce due to it's admirable ability to stick and burn. As it turned out I'm not so sure I needed to do that .. so you choose .. to spray or not to spray !
• Place the rack inside the instant pot. Lay the ribs on top of the rack. I just laid them kind of sprawled out and overlapping each other.
• Pour half of the sauce over the ribs. Grab each section of ribs and roll them over in the sauce. Add about 1/3 cup of water to the bottom of the pot.
• Set the control panel to pressure cook .. set the timer for 22 minutes. Place the lid on and lock in place. Be sure the vent is moved to the seal position.
• Walk away and let it do it's thing.l
• When the 22 minutes is up .. leave everything alone for 12 minutes. After that 12 minutes is up, turn the valve to release and when it's done open the lid.
• At this point you can either serve them as they are .. or you can do as we did and pop them under the broiler for a couple of minutes to caramelize that delicious sauce.
• You will have diluted sauce in the bottom of the pot and I suggest using that to baste those ribs while they are under the broiler. If you prefer you can use some of the leftover sauce that you made.
• Serve hot with copious amounts of napkins and wet wipes!

• Place the rack insert in the bottom and set the ribs on the rack on their side, spiraling around the inside of the pot. Close the lid to the Instant Pot, making sure the vent is set to sealing. Select manual pressure and set the pressure to high. Set the timer for 28 minutes. Allow natural release for 5 minutes, then set to venting to release the remaining pressure.
• While the ribs are cooking, make the barbecue sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the mustard, cayenne, salt, pepper, honey, ginger, garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and apple cider vinegar and mix well.

• Broil the ribs for 2-4 minutes, until the sauce begins to caramelize.

INSTANT POT STICKY HOISIN BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Cut meat between bones into individual ribs; season with kosher salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour.
• Whisk hoisin, honey, soy sauce, rice wine, ginger, and five-spice powder in cooker insert. Toss ribs in sauce to coat, then fit as many as possible in a single layer; set remaining ribs on top. Lock on lid, making sure steam release valve is in the proper sealed position. Select "Manual" and program for 12 minutes at high pressure.
• As soon as the time has elapsed, turn off cooker, "Quick Release" the steam, and unlock lid. The ribs should be tender enough to easily pierce with a sharp knife. Transfer ribs to a platter.
• Select "Sauté" and let cooking liquid simmer until reduced by about half, 10-15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare a medium direct fire on a gas or charcoal grill (or preheat broiler). Brush ribs with sauce. Place ribs on grate directly over fire, meaty side down. Close lid and grill until browned and crisp in places, about 5 minutes (or transfer them to a baking sheet, meaty side up, and broil the same way).
• Return ribs to platter. Top with sea salt. Serve with remaining sauce alongside.
• Cooks' Note: For a fruitier spin on the sauce, substitute pineapple or orange juice for the honey and use a pinch of cayenne or crushed red pepper flakes instead of the five-spice powder.
