📝 Instructions

8 steps
1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

2

In a small bowl, mix together kosher salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and brown sugar.

3

Pat the short ribs dry using paper towels and generously season them on all sides with the spice mixture.

4

Place the seasoned short ribs in a large roasting pan or baking dish in a single layer. Cover tightly with aluminum foil.

5

Bake in the preheated oven for 2 1/2 hours or until the ribs are tender and the meat easily pulls away from the bone.

6

Remove the ribs from the oven and discard the foil. Brush barbecue sauce generously over the top and sides of the ribs.

7

Increase the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C). Return the ribs to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 20-30 minutes, basting with more barbecue sauce halfway through, until the sauce is caramelized and slightly sticky.

8

Let the ribs rest for 10 minutes before serving. Serve with extra barbecue sauce on the side, if desired.
