Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pounds Pork ribs
- 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Paprika
- 1 tablespoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with aluminum foil and placing a wire rack inside it.
Pat the pork ribs dry with paper towels. Place them on a clean cutting board and remove the thin membrane from the back of the ribs for a more tender texture.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, paprika, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cayenne pepper, dried oregano, and dried thyme to create the dry rub.
Rub both sides of the ribs generously with olive oil to help the seasoning adhere. Then coat the ribs evenly with the prepared dry rub, pressing it into the meat to ensure it sticks.
Place the seasoned ribs onto the wire rack on the prepared baking sheet, meat side up. Cover the ribs tightly with aluminum foil to retain moisture during cooking.
Bake the ribs in the preheated oven for 2.5 hours, or until the meat is tender and begins to pull away from the bone.
Remove the foil from the ribs and increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C). Roast the ribs for an additional 20-30 minutes to achieve a crispy, caramelized crust.
Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious dry rub pork ribs!
