Ninja Foodi Baby Back Ribs

Make the best ribs you’ve ever had with these Ninja Foodi Baby Back Ribs!

Do you like steamed meat? I don’t. Not even a little, it grosses me out. So I tend to have a hard time with simply pressure cooking meats. Of course, if it’s going to be used in a recipe I can handle it.

What happens though when you pressure cook meat and then use the air fryer too? It’s MAGIC!

It literally tastes like it just came off the grill, but the meat falls right of the bone and simply melts in your mouth.

Do you need a Ninja Foodi for Ninja Foodi Baby Back Ribs?

In this case, YES! Of course, you can do these in an Instant Pot and then simply broil them in the oven. That would work too but it’s much easier in the Ninja Foodi because you do not even have to remove them from the pot.

What do you use to make Ninja Foodi Baby Back Ribs?

For this recipe, you will use the air crisper basket. The ribs will be in this the entire time. That means you will want to cut the slab of ribs into 4 sections to be able to nicely fit in the basket. They can be on their side if needed.

How to cook ribs in the Ninja Foodi:

Ribs will be cooked in the Ninja Foodi in two parts, using both the Pressure Cooker and Air Crisper functions. That means you will need both lids to make these ribs. It will take about one hour to make the ribs.

The first part of this method is going to be using the pressure cooker along with the pressure cooker lid that comes with the Ninja Foodi.

For the final part of the recipe, you will use the lid attached to the Ninja Foodi to use the air crisper function.

One thing to note is that you want to be sure to trim the membrane off the back of the ribs. We bought ours from the meat department at the local store so it was basically trimmed already. If they are not trim that off and it will allow them to cook up better.

Also, remember they need to be sliced into 4 parts to fit nicely in the basket.

What sauce should you use for Ninja Foodi Ribs?

These ribs can be made with your favorite sauce or a homemade sauce. We typically use Head Country BBQ Sauce for this Ninja Foodi recipe.

Now it’s time to make these fabulous Ninja Foodi Baby Back Ribs…trust me, ribs will never be the same after these!
