Ingredients for Pork Baby Back Ribs
Method
Directions for Cooking Pork Baby Back Ribs
- 1
Prepare the Ribs
Remove the silver skin from the back of the ribs for better flavor absorption. Pat the ribs dry with paper towels.
- 2
Make the Dry Rub
In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly.
- 3
Rub the Ribs
Generously apply the dry rub all over the ribs, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let the ribs sit for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.
- 4
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). This low temperature ensures tender ribs.
- 5
Prepare the Baking Sheet
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet.
- 6
Bake the Ribs
Place the ribs on the wire rack, bone side down. Bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and pulls away from the bone.
- 7
Prepare the Glaze
While the ribs are baking, combine the apple cider vinegar and barbecue sauce in a small saucepan. Heat over low heat until warm.
- 8
Glaze the Ribs
After baking, remove the ribs from the oven. Brush the warm barbecue glaze generously over the ribs.
- 9
Broil for Finish
Switch the oven to broil. Return the glazed ribs to the oven and broil for 5-7 minutes, or until the glaze caramelizes and becomes slightly crispy.
- 10
Serve
Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Cut into individual ribs and serve with additional barbecue sauce on the side.
