Servings 6 servings
Equipment
- Instant Pot Pressure Cooker
Ingredients
- 3 pounds sustainably raised spareribs
- 1 cup water
Dry Rub
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley
- 1 tablespoon sea salt
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Mix all seasonings for the dry rub.
- Pat dry all sides of rib racks. Removing the membrane is not necessary but feel free to do so. Season generously with dry rub.
- Place wire trivet in the bottom of the inner pot of the pressure cooker and add water to the pot.
- Place the ribs upright in the pot, coiling them inside if needed.
- Secure lid and close the vent. Press Manual and press +/- to select 30 minutes of cooking time.
- When the cooking cycle has completed, allow to Natural Pressure Release (NPR) for 15 minutes, followed by Quick Pressure Release (QPR) by turning the valve to release pressure.
- OPTIONAL: Remove the ribs with a pair of tongs and transfer to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Broil on high for 4 minutes for that crispy skin.
Notes
If using BBQ sauce, slather it on the ribs just before popping under the broiler.
