Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 racks Pork ribs
- 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Paprika
- 1 tablespoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Barbecue sauce
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Remove the silver skin membrane from the back of the pork ribs for better flavor and tenderness. Use a paper towel to grip and pull it off if necessary.
In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper.
Pat the ribs dry with a paper towel, then drizzle olive oil over both sides. Rub the spice mixture evenly onto the ribs, ensuring a good coating.
Wrap each rack of ribs tightly in aluminum foil to seal in the moisture.
Place the wrapped ribs on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 2 1/2 hours, or until the ribs are tender.
Carefully remove the ribs from the oven and unwrap them. Turn the oven to broil.
Brush a generous layer of barbecue sauce over the ribs. Place them back in the oven, uncovered, for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce is caramelized and bubbly. Watch closely to avoid burning.
Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing into individual ribs.
Serve the spiced pork ribs hot with extra barbecue sauce on the side, if desired.
