- Ooh! Hey, everyone. It's Natasha of NatashasKitchen.com, and today I'm gonna show you
how to make instant pot ribs. So smoked ribs take about
seven hours to make. Traditional grilling is about two hours. But this recipe is done in 45 minutes. So quick, and tender, juicy,
and flavorful results. So let's get started. We'll start with one
three-pound rack of ribs, and you can use pork loin
back ribs or baby back ribs. Most of the time, silver
skin is removed for you, but if you see any, you
can use a paper towel to help remove it from
the rib side of the rack. Pat the ribs dry with a paper towel, then rub on your dry
ingredients on both sides. Sprinkle on one tablespoon
of seasoning salt and two tablespoons of
your favorite dry rub. And I'll leave links to the
ones we used in the notes. Rub the seasonings evenly over
your ribs and set them aside. The secret to making ribs super fast is using an instant pot,
which is a pressure cooker. Into the bowl of a six-quart instant pot, add six cups of apple juice, one-fourth cup of apple cider vinegar, and one-third cup of barbecue sauce. Stir that together to combine. Place the seasoned rack of
ribs inside the instant pot, wrapping it around the bowl. The bone side should be
facing the center of the pot. Now cover and cook on high
pressure for 25 minutes. Make sure the steam vent is
set to the sealing position. Allow a 10-minute natural pressure release and use oven mitts to switch
to the venting position. Wait until the pressure gauge has dropped, indicating that all of the
pressure has been released. It's easiest to remove
the ribs using tongs. Let any excess liquid drip off, then transfer the ribs
onto a rimmed baking sheet lined with a wire rack. This will still work
without the rack lining if you don't have one, but it does help to
circulate the air underneath. Generously brush the
remaining one-third cup of barbecue sauce over the ribs. Transfer that to the oven and broil for four to
five minutes on high heat. If you prefer, you can also place the ribs onto a preheated barbecue grill
and grill for five minutes. This step allows the barbecue
sauce to set onto the ribs. Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for
about five to 10 minutes, or just until they're no
longer too hot to handle. All right, it is time to
cut these up and serve because I'm ready for this taste test. My kitchen smells so good. Before serving, I mean, that
barbecue sauce is caramelized onto the ribs, and they look fabulous, but I do love to add some
more barbecue sauce to serve. So we're just gonna brush on
a little bit or a lot of bit. And I love adding a sweet barbecue sauce, because the sugars in the
sauce caramelize onto the ribs, and it just forms this lovely,
sticky, sweet exterior. Delicious. Okay. That looks amazing. Now we're gonna cut into this. Oh, and it cuts through
the meat so easily. I can tell it's gonna be super tender. Yum. Okay, here we go. I don't need a plate. Who needs a plate for ribs? Come on. All right, let's pick a big one. Yep, that was a good choice. Look at how tender and juicy this meat is. Wow. Mmm. Mmm, mmm. That is really good. This meat is so tender, easy to chew. It's really flavorful. Yum. And that extra barbecue
sauce is my favorite. Sweet and sticky. I can't believe how fast it was to get these kind of results. So yummy. Such a treat, and an easy
weeknight meal, really. It doesn't take a ton of prep, and you can even use frozen ribs. Just make sure to season
them ahead of time, but you can just put frozen
ribs right into the instant pot. It doesn't get any easier. This is dinner tonight. Let me know in a comment below what's your favorite instant pot recipe. And if you guys love
