Spare Ribs
Method
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prep the Ribs
Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F). Start by removing the silver skin from the back of the ribs. This will help the seasonings penetrate better and make the ribs more tender.
- 2
Season the Ribs
In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and brown sugar. Rub this spice mix all over the ribs, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- 3
Bake the Ribs
Place the seasoned ribs on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Cover them with another piece of foil and bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the ribs are tender.

Glaze and Finish
Remove the ribs from the oven and brush them generously with barbecue sauce. Increase the oven temperature to 200°C (400°F) and return the ribs to the oven uncovered for an additional 15-20 minutes, allowing the sauce to caramelize.

Serve
Once done, take the ribs out of the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before cutting. Serve with additional barbecue sauce on the side.
