Instant Pot baby back ribs cooked in apple cider then coated in garlicky BBQ sauce and baked until sticky perfection.
Ingredients:
  • 2 quarts apple cider
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 racks baby back ribs, cut into individual ribs
  • 2 (12 ounce) bottles BBQ sauce
  • 6 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon chili garlic sauce
Instructions:
  • 1. Add apple cider to the Instant Pot® until it's 1/2 inch below the rack line. Mix in garlic powder, salt, paprika, and pepper. Put the rack in and heat the liquid; then, place the ribs on the rack.
  • Seal the lid securely, choose high pressure based on the manufacturer's guidelines, and set the timer for 27 minutes. Let the pressure build for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and prepare a baking pan by lining it with a roasting rack.
  • In a large cup, blend 2 cups BBQ sauce with garlic, brown sugar, and chili sauce until smooth using a hand blender. Combine with the rest of the BBQ sauce in a large bowl and let it sit at room temperature.
  • Carefully release pressure using the quick-release method following the manufacturer's instructions for about 5 minutes.
  • Gently remove ribs and drain cooking liquid. Dip each rib fully in BBQ sauce and place on roasting rack without touching. Brush with extra BBQ sauce for added stickiness.
  • Bake until the sauce is set in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes.
