Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ribs

    Remove the membrane from the back of the pork ribs for better flavor and tenderness.

  3. 3

    Season the Ribs

    In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the pork ribs, ensuring they are well coated.

  4. 4

    Wrap in Foil

    Wrap the seasoned ribs tightly in aluminum foil to create a sealed packet, which will help retain moisture during cooking.

  5. 5

    Bake the Ribs

    Place the foil-wrapped ribs on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 2.5 to 3 hours until tender.

  6. 6

    Prepare the BBQ Glaze

    In a small bowl, mix together BBQ sauce and apple cider vinegar. Set aside.

  7. 7

    Glaze the Ribs

    After 2.5 to 3 hours, take the ribs out of the oven, carefully unwrap them, and brush the BBQ glaze over the top of the ribs.

  8. 8

    Broil for Crispiness

    Return the ribs to the oven (uncovered) and broil on high for about 5-7 minutes until the glaze is caramelized and bubbly.

  9. 9

    Serve

    Remove the ribs from the oven, let them rest for a few minutes, then cut between the bones and serve with extra BBQ sauce on the side.
