Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds Pork spare ribs
- 2 tablespoons Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Onion powder
- 1 tablespoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 2 cups Your favorite barbecue sauce
- 0.25 cup Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Prepare the dry rub by combining the paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl.
Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs (if it hasn’t already been removed). This will help the rub penetrate and make the ribs more tender.
Generously coat both sides of the ribs with the dry rub, massaging it into the meat.
Wrap the ribs tightly in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 3 hours, or until the ribs are tender and start to pull away from the bone.
While the ribs are baking, prepare the barbecue glaze by mixing your barbecue sauce, apple cider vinegar, and honey in a saucepan. Heat over low heat, stirring occasionally, until well combined. Set aside.
Once the ribs are done baking, remove them from the oven and carefully unwrap the foil (be cautious of the steam).
Preheat your grill to medium heat or set your oven to broil.
Brush a generous amount of the barbecue glaze onto both sides of the ribs.
Place the ribs on the hot grill or under the broiler. Cook for 5-8 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with more sauce, until the glaze becomes caramelized and slightly sticky.
Remove the ribs from the heat and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Serve with additional barbecue sauce on the side and enjoy!
