Some notes:
• I used apple juice for my cooking liquid, but you can use whatever liquid you like. Some great options are pickle juice, beer, broth, or just plain water.
• These back ribs were on a BOGO at the store, but you can use St. Louis ribs or spareribs. You may have to cut the spareribs down into sections to fit into your pot.
• I had some leftover homemade BBQ rub from a different recipe, but you can certainly use a store-bought rub. I just love the taste of the McCormick’s and they have such a wide variety of flavors.
• If you like a little more chew on your ribs, only cook for 20 minutes. Go for 30 if you want them more fall-apart.

Today’s Ingredients:
2 racks of pork ribs, 3-4 lbs each
liquid smoke, about ¼ cup
BBQ rub, about ½ cup
2 cups apple juice
BBQ sauce
Instructions:
1. Pat the ribs dry and remove the membrane from the backside.
2. Rub a little liquid smoke on the ribs – this will help the seasoning stick – then rub with your seasoning mix. Set the ribs aside for 15-30 minutes before cooking.
3. Pour the apple juice into the pot insert and set a steam rack into the pot. Coil the ribs and insert them into the Instant Pot. Try to leave a little space in between the coils to let the steam work all around the meat.
4. Lock the lid and cook on manual/high for 25 minutes, then natural pressure release for 20 minutes before quick-releasing any remaining pressure.
5. Remove the ribs onto a baking sheet.
6. Slather with barbeque sauce and place under a broiler for 5-10 minutes. Flip and repeat on the other side.
7. Yum.
