Classic Instapot Rib Recipe

What a perfect day to celebrate and make this amazing BBQ Ribs Recipe for your 4th of July Celebration! This dish goes perfectly with our 2019 Primitivo - a beautiful blending of Syrah, Malbec, Grenache, and Mourvedre. 

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups Water (or Apple Juice/Cider)

  • 2-3 Tbsp. Liquid Smoke (goes right in the water)

  • 1/3 cup Apple Cider Vinegar (adds a nice hint of apple and tanginess)

  • For the Ribs

  • 1-2 racks of Baby Back Ribs (you can use other pork ribs, I get what's on sale)

  • 1/2 - 1 cup Dry Spice Rub Use your favorite or make a batch of my Rib Spice Rub

  • 1 cup BBQ Sauce I like to use one with a smoky flavor

Directions

  1. Place a trivet at the bottom of the instapot. Add the water or juice, liquid smoke, and ACV to the inner liner pot.

  2. Lay out the rack of ribs meat side down and trim off any excess fat or membrane.

  3. Sprinkle dry rub spice all over both sides of the ribs.

  4. Carefully roll the rack up into a C shape, and place it in the pot sideways, or you can cut the rack of ribs and stack them.

  5. Put the lid on the pot and close it turning the venting knob to the sealing position.

  6. Press the Pressure Cook button and then set it for 25 minutes.

  7. Once the Pressure cooker timer ends, let it set while it goes through the Natural Release Phase, usually about 10 minutes.

  8. Remove the rack of ribs and place on a baking sheet.

  9. Turn your oven to Broil.

  10. Pour your BBQ sauce on the hot ribs and use a brush or spatula to spread the sauce all over.

  11. Place the pan in the broiler for a few minutes until the sauce gets bubbly.

  12. You can also do this step on the grill for a perfectly charred flavor.

Happy Summer barbecuing!
