Ribs are in my top ten favorite foods of all time and I love them on the smoker. But, I don’t always have six hours to babysit the baby backs on my Green Mountain Grill, so that’s why I came up with this Instant Pot Baby Back Ribs recipe. It’s BBQ ribs with a homemade tangy barbeque sauce, cooked in the Instant Pot and finished in the oven, all in under an hour.
The Sauce
BBQ sauce is a very personal thing. Everyone has a different way that they like it. Some sweet, some spicy. I personally like it loaded with vinegar and tanginess. This recipe is definitely on the tangy side of the spectrum thanks to mustard and apple cider vinegar.
Of course, you can use whatever sauce you like best, though. If you don’t have time for homemade sauce, just grab your favorite at the store and keep on rockin’ those baby back ribs.
Timing
I have seen some people recommend 20 to 25 minutes for baby back ribs in the Instant Pot. For me, that’s too long. I like my meat to be tender, easily pulled off the bone, but not falling apart. I found that 14 minutes in the Instant Pot is just right for my liking. But, of course, as always, you do what makes you happy. I’m just here to make suggestions 🙂
