Description
Tender, fall-off-the-bone ribs with barbecue sauce, made easily in your oven without the need for a grill.
Ingredients
- 1 rack pork baby back ribs (about 2–2.5 pounds)
- 3–4 tablespoons grill seasoning (to taste)
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite flavor)
- Optional: 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, or liquid smoke
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).
- Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
- Remove or score the thin membrane on the bone side of the ribs.
- Pat the ribs dry with paper towels and rub generously with grill seasoning.
- Tightly cover the ribs with foil and bake for 2 to 2½ hours until tender.
- Unwrap the ribs, baste one side with BBQ sauce, and broil for 2–3 minutes.
- Flip the ribs, baste the other side, and broil 2–3 minutes again until caramelized.
- Let the ribs rest for 8–10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
For spare ribs, expect longer bake time. Use a vinegar-based sauce for a no-sugar option.
