Remove the membrane from the back of the baby back ribs by sliding a knife under it and pulling it off with a paper towel for grip.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, ground mustard, and cayenne pepper to create the dry rub.
Generously coat both sides of the ribs with the dry rub, pressing it into the meat to adhere.
Cut the racks of ribs into 2-3 rib sections to fit them into the electric pressure cooker.
Pour the apple cider vinegar and water into the bottom of the pressure cooker. Insert the trivet and arrange the rib sections upright on the trivet, meat side out.
Secure the lid on the pressure cooker and set it to cook on high pressure for 25 minutes.
Once the cooking time is up, allow the pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes, then perform a quick release to let out any remaining pressure.
Carefully remove the ribs from the pressure cooker and place them on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil or a grill safe surface.
Brush the ribs generously with barbecue sauce. For a sticky glaze, broil them in the oven for 5 minutes or grill them over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, flipping to caramelize both sides.
Serve hot and enjoy your Sweet Dry Rub Baby Back Ribs!
