These Instant Pot Tangy Glazed Baby Back Ribs are tender, flavorful, and perfect for a quick and delicious meal.
Mix together the salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper in a mixing bowl to create a dry rub.
For a deeper flavor, prepare the dry rub in advance and store it in an airtight container.
Cut the baby back ribs into smaller sections for easier handling.
Cutting the ribs allows for even cooking and easier serving.
Rub the dry rub mixture all over the ribs, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Let the ribs sit with the rub for 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode and heat the olive oil.
Ensure the oil is hot before adding the ribs to prevent sticking.
Brown the ribs on all sides in the Instant Pot.
Browning the ribs enhances their flavor by caramelizing the surface.
Add the beer to the Instant Pot and place the ribs on the trivet inside.
Use a trivet to keep the ribs elevated above the liquid for even cooking.
Seal the Instant Pot and cook on high pressure for 30 minutes.
Allow the pressure to release naturally for the best texture.
Release any remaining pressure and remove the ribs from the Instant Pot.
Handle the ribs gently as they will be very tender.
Mix the barbecue sauce and honey in a small bowl to create the glaze.
Adjust the sweetness of the glaze by adding more or less honey.
Brush the glaze over the ribs and broil them in the oven for 5 minutes to caramelize the glaze.
Keep an eye on the ribs while broiling to prevent burning.
Serve the ribs hot with your favorite sides and enjoy!
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley for a pop of color.
