Bbq Ribs with Sauce
Juicy, tender, and packed with smoky-sweet flavor, these BBQ Ribs with Sauce are the ultimate crowd-pleaser for any barbecue or family dinner. This recipe starts with a savory dry rub made from pantry staples like paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, and onion powder, ensuring the pork ribs are infused with bold, aromatic spices. Slow-baked to perfection for fall-off-the-bone tenderness, the ribs are then slathered in a homemade BBQ sauce featuring ketchup, apple cider vinegar, honey, and a hint of smoky paprika for a rich, tangy glaze. Finally, the ribs are finished on the grill or under the broiler to caramelize the sauce into a sticky, mouthwatering coating. Perfect for summer cookouts or cozy indoor gatherings, these ribs pair beautifully with classic sides like coleslaw, cornbread, or baked beans. Whether you're a BBQ enthusiast or a beginner, this recipe is guaranteed to deliver unforgettable flavor.

Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds Pork ribs
- 2 tablespoons Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Ketchup
- 0.25 cup Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).
Remove the membrane from the back of the pork ribs for tender results.
In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to create the dry rub.
Rub the olive oil evenly over the ribs, then generously coat the ribs with the dry rub on all sides.
Wrap the ribs tightly in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 hours, or until the ribs are tender and the meat pulls away slightly from the bone.
While the ribs are baking, prepare the BBQ sauce: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the ketchup, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, honey, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, and chili powder.
Stir the sauce frequently and simmer for 10-15 minutes until it thickens slightly. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the ribs are cooked, remove them from the oven and discard the foil.
Preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat.
Brush the ribs generously with the prepared BBQ sauce on all sides.
Grill or broil the ribs for 5-10 minutes, flipping once, until the sauce caramelizes and becomes sticky.
Remove the ribs from the grill or broiler and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm with additional BBQ sauce on the side, if desired.
