Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 lbs Country-style pork ribs
- 1 tbsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 2 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tbsp Paprika
- 2 tbsp Brown sugar
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1.5 cups BBQ sauce
- 2 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 1 large Onion, sliced
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Pat the country-style pork ribs dry with paper towels, then place them on a large baking sheet or cutting board.
In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and brown sugar to create a dry rub.
Drizzle the pork ribs with olive oil, and then generously apply the dry rub, coating all sides of the ribs. Massage the rub into the meat for maximum flavor.
In a roasting pan or oven-safe dish, layer the sliced onion on the bottom to create a bed for the ribs.
Place the seasoned ribs on top of the onions. Pour the chicken broth and apple cider vinegar around the ribs, ensuring the liquids don’t wash away the seasoning.
Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil to keep the moisture in, and place it in the preheated oven.
Bake the ribs for 2.5 hours, checking once midway to ensure the liquid hasn’t evaporated (add a bit more broth if needed).
After 2.5 hours, remove the foil and increase the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C).
Brush the ribs generously with BBQ sauce and return them to the oven, uncovered, for 25-30 minutes, or until the sauce becomes caramelized and sticky.
Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Serve the ribs hot with your favorite sides, such as coleslaw, cornbread, or roasted vegetables. Enjoy!
