Notes
*Removing the thin membrane: Most ribs that you purchase at the store will have the thin membrane that you will have to peel/ cut away. The membrance will be on the underside of the ribs. The best method I have used is to snip a piece of the membrane from one end of the ribs. Then take the piece that you have snipped to be lifted from the ribs and hold on to it with a paper towel. Then pull! The membrane will pull away.
**If you choose to use the oven rather than the grill, you will need to place the ribs in the oven after they are finished in the Instant Pot. Set oven to preheat high broil. Broil the ribs until a glaze is formed from the BBQ sauce.
