Meat

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ribs

    Start by removing the membrane from the back of the pork ribs using a sharp knife. This helps the ribs to become tender and absorb more flavor.

  2. 2

    Make the Dry Rub

    In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, paprika, black pepper, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper until well combined.

  3. 3

    Apply the Dry Rub

    Generously coat both sides of the ribs with the dry rub mixture. Wrap the ribs in plastic wrap and let them marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C).

  2. 5

    Bake the Ribs

    Place the ribs on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil, meat side up. Cover them tightly with another piece of foil and bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the ribs are tender.

  3. 6

    Prepare the BBQ Sauce

    While the ribs are baking, combine ketchup, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, honey, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through and slightly thickened.

  4. 7

    Glaze the Ribs

    Once the ribs are tender, remove them from the oven. Preheat your grill (or broiler) to medium-high heat. Brush a generous amount of BBQ sauce on the ribs and grill for about 5-10 minutes, turning occasionally until caramelized.

Serving

  1. 8

    Serve

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