BBQ Pork Ribs Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ribs

    Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F). Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs for better flavor absorption.

  2. 2

    Make the Rub

    In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Mix well.

  3. 3

    Season the Ribs

    Rub the spice mixture all over the ribs, ensuring an even coating. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.

  4. 4

    Slow Cook the Ribs

    Place the ribs in a baking dish, cover tightly with foil, and bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 to 3 hours, until tender.

  5. 5

    Prepare the BBQ Sauce

    In a saucepan, combine BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar, and water. Heat over medium heat until warmed through.

  6. 6

    Glaze the Ribs

    After the ribs are tender, remove them from the oven and brush generously with the BBQ sauce mixture.

  7. 7

    Finish Under the Broiler

    Place the ribs under the broiler for about 5-7 minutes, until the sauce is caramelized and bubbly. Keep a close eye to avoid burning.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, let rest for 5 minutes, then cut and serve with additional BBQ sauce on the side.
