If you have never tried ribs in an instant pot, what are you waiting for!? Grilled Honey Soy Pork Ribs are pressure cooked and then grilled to perfection in a sweet sauce consisting of honey, dark soy sauce, rice vinegar, mirin, and sesame oil. They are super tender and fall-off-the-bone perfect!
Start by removing the membrane on the back of the ribs. Next, cut between each bone so that you have separated all of the ribs. Pat them all dry with paper towels and set them in a large bowl.
Sprinkle over the salt and ground black pepper and massage each individual rib so that each one is well seasoned.
Next, ensure your trivet or steam rack is in your instant pot. Pour in the stock and vinegar.
Lay the ribs onto the steam rack in a random fashion.
Close and seal the instant pot. Pressure cook on high for 23 minutes.
Once done, allow the steam to release naturally for five minutes. Then, carefully open the valve to remaining pressure out.
In the meantime, prepare the sauce by measuring all of the sauce ingredients, except the sesame seeds and green onions or chives. Whisk well to combine and set aside.
Transfer the ribs to the bowl with the prepared sauce. Gently toss to coat. Be careful, because the ribs are already very tender. Try to keep the bone in the meat to make grilling easier.
Preheat grill to 450 degrees F.
Once the grill is hot, place each rib onto the grill, and allow it to cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes.
While they cook, use a pastry brush to baste the ribs.
Carefully flip the ribs over using tongs and cook for 2-3 minutes more. Baste the ribs once again.
Once you’re happy with the grill marks, get the ribs off the grill. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions or chives. Serve immediately.
