Ingredients

1 slab pork ribs
6 tablespoon Chef's Blend Spice Mix
1 cup apple juice or cranberry peach juice I've used both, use your favorite!
1 ½ cups barbecue sauce use your favorite!

Instructions

Remove the silver skin on the underside of the ribs. It might take you a bit, but grasp under the skin and slowly peel it away. Taking the time to remove the skin will make the ribs much more tender
Season both sides of the meat with a flavorful dry rub. Flip the ribs over and season both sides rubbing the dry rub into the meat.
Roll up the slab of ribs - jellyroll fashion. Wrap well in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes - longer is better you can even do it overnight.
Add one cup of juice to the bottom of the Instant Pot. Place the rolled up ribs on the into the IP and top it with a half cup of your favorite BBQ Sauce. Secure the lid of the Instant Pot, close the valve and set in on manual high pressure. Set the cook time to 25 minutes.
When the timer goes off quick release the instant pot to remove the remaining pressure. Preheat the broiler or grill.
Remove the ribs from the Instant Pot and place on a baking sheet. Slather them with your favorite barbecue sauce and place them on a hot grill. BBQ for five minutes on each side or until the sauce is seared and delicious!

Notes

Before starting, place parchment paper or plastic wrap under the slab of ribs this will make clean up a breeze!

Taking the time to remove the silver skin will make the ribs much more tender. Be patient and remove as much as possible. Not only will it make it more tender, but the rub and sauce will be able to penetrate the meat, making it more flavorful.
