Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ribs

    Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Rinse the baby back ribs under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs for better flavor and tenderness.

  2. 2

    Make the Rub

    In a bowl, combine brown sugar, paprika, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. Mix well to form a dry rub.

  3. 3

    Season the Ribs

    Rub the olive oil over both sides of the ribs, then generously apply the dry rub mixture on both sides, ensuring an even coat.

  4. 4

    Cook the Ribs

    Place the ribs on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Cover the ribs tightly with another piece of foil. Bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 to 3 hours, until the ribs are tender.

  5. 5

    Glaze the Ribs

    Remove the ribs from the oven and discard the top layer of foil. Brush the BBQ sauce over the ribs generously.

  6. 6

    Finish on the Grill

    Preheat a grill to medium heat. Place the ribs on the grill and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with more BBQ sauce, until the ribs are caramelized and heated through.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove the ribs from the grill, let them rest for a few minutes, then slice between the bones and serve warm with additional BBQ sauce on the side.
