Instant Pot Chinese-Style Spareribs (Char Siu)

subheading: The Ribs:

2 to 6 pounds (up to 3 full racks) of St. Louis ribs (suggested), spareribs OR baby back ribs (pork loin back ribs), unseasoned

1 (64-ounce) bottle of apple juice (NOTE: You can halve this or even reduce to only 2 cups. If you use more, the ribs will be more infused with sweetness but will take a bit longer to come to pressure)

Sesame seeds, for topping (optional)

subheading: The Char Siu Sauce (for up to 2 racks of ribs - half or double if needed. See Jeff's Tips):

½ cup hoisin sauce

¼ cup oyster sauce

¼ cup honey

3 tablespoons soy sauce, tamari or coconut aminos

3 tablespoons dark brown sugar

3 tablespoons Shaoxing wine or sherry

1 tablespoon sesame oil (any kind)

1 tablespoon Chinese five spice

¼ teaspoon red food coloring (optional, strictly for color)
