3 to 4 pounds country style ribs
5 to 6 tablespoons dry rub store-bought or homemade
1 cup chicken broth
½ cup apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon liquid smoke optional
½ cup BBQ sauce
Instructions
- Coat ribs in the dry rub. Place a trivet in the inner pot of the Instant Pot and add the broth, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and liquid smoke (if using).
- Stack the ribs on top of the trivet. Place the lid on the Instant Pot and make sure the valve is in the sealed position.
- Set the Instant Pot on high for 16 minutes for tender, firm ribs or 35 minutes for ribs that shred with a fork.
- Allow the Instant Pot to do a natural pressure release for 10 minutes then manually release any remaining pressure.
- Set your oven to broil and place the oven rack 6 inches below the broiler unit.
- Place the ribs on a sheet pan and coat them all over with barbecue sauce. Slide the ribs under the broiler and broil them for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until the sauce gets thick and caramelized.
