How to Make Sweet Dry Rub Baby Back Ribs 6 Qt Electric Pressure Cooker

Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs and trim excess fat.
In a medium bowl, combine all dry rub ingredients (see below).
Generously rub the mixture all over the ribs, ensuring even coverage.
Place the ribs in the electric pressure cooker, ensuring they are not submerged in liquid.
Add 1 cup of water or broth to the bottom of the pressure cooker.
Close the lid and set the pressure cooker to high pressure for 40 minutes.
Allow the pressure to release naturally for 20 minutes, then manually release any remaining pressure.
Carefully remove the ribs from the pressure cooker.
Strain the cooking liquid, remove excess fat, and reserve for later use (rump roast marinade).
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) or prepare your grill.
Apply your favorite BBQ sauce to the ribs.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or grill for 10-15 minutes, until heated through and slightly caramelized.
Let the ribs rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
