Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs by using a knife to pry it up at one end, then grasp the membrane with a paper towel and pull it off.
In a small bowl, combine the paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, ground black pepper, salt, and cayenne pepper.
Rub the spice mixture generously on both sides of the ribs, massaging it into the meat.
Drizzle olive oil over the ribs and rub it in to help the spices penetrate.
Wrap each rack of ribs in aluminum foil, ensuring they are sealed tightly.
Place wrapped ribs on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 hours, or until the meat is tender and pulling away from the bones.
Remove the ribs from the oven and carefully unwrap the foil.
Increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C) or preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
Brush the ribs generously with the gluten-free barbecue sauce.
Place the ribs back in the oven or on the grill, cook for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce is caramelized and sticky.
Remove the ribs from the oven or grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
