Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 racks Pork ribs (baby back or spare ribs)
- 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Barbecue sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C). Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
If needed, remove the silver skin (membrane) from the back of the ribs. Use a small knife to loosen it at one corner, then grip it with a paper towel and peel it off.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to make the dry rub.
Brush the ribs evenly with olive oil, then generously apply the dry rub to both sides of the ribs, pressing it into the meat.
Place the ribs on the prepared baking sheet, meat-side up. Cover the ribs tightly with aluminum foil to trap in moisture.
Bake the ribs in the preheated oven for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and pulling away from the bones.
Remove the ribs from the oven and carefully discard the top layer of foil.
Raise the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C). Brush a generous layer of barbecue sauce over the ribs and return them to the oven, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has caramelized and become sticky.
If desired, for extra tang, mix the barbecue sauce with apple cider vinegar before brushing it onto the ribs.
Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 5-10 minutes. Slice between the bones and serve warm with additional barbecue sauce on the side.
