Meat

Dry Rub

BBQ Sauce

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ribs

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

  2. 2

    Make the Dry Rub

    In a medium bowl, mix together the brown sugar, paprika, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. This will create a flavorful dry rub for the ribs.

  3. 3

    Season the Ribs

    Generously coat both sides of the ribs with the dry rub mixture, pressing it into the meat. Make sure to cover all areas for maximum flavor.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Bake the Ribs

    Place the seasoned ribs on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil, bone side down. Cover the ribs tightly with another sheet of foil and bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 to 3 hours until tender.

  2. 5

    Prepare the BBQ Sauce

    While the ribs are baking, combine the tomato ketchup, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, honey, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir and bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and let it thicken for about 10-15 minutes.

  3. 6

    Glaze the Ribs

    After the ribs have cooked for 2.5-3 hours, remove them from the oven and carefully uncover the foil. Brush a generous amount of BBQ sauce over the ribs.

  4. 7

    Finish Cooking

    Increase the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C). Return the ribs to the oven uncovered and bake for an additional 30 minutes, brushing with more BBQ sauce halfway through.

Serving

  1. 8

    Slice and Serve

    Once the ribs are done, remove them from the oven and let them rest for about 10 minutes. Slice between the bones and serve with any remaining BBQ sauce on the side.
