Ingredients

  • 2 racks Pork baby back ribs
  • 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 1.5 cups BBQ sauce

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

Step 2

Remove the silver membrane from the back of the ribs for better seasoning penetration and tenderness.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika to create the dry rub.

Step 4

Pat the ribs dry with paper towels and lightly coat them with olive oil to help the seasoning stick.

Step 5

Generously rub the dry spice mixture all over the ribs, ensuring they are fully coated.

Step 6

Wrap each rack of ribs tightly in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet.

Step 7

Bake the ribs in the preheated oven for 3 hours, or until they are tender and the meat easily pulls away from the bone.

Step 8

Remove the ribs from the oven and carefully unwrap the foil (watch out for hot steam). Drain any excess liquid.

Step 9

Brush the ribs generously with BBQ sauce on both sides.

Step 10

Increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C) and return the ribs to the oven, uncovered, for an additional 10-15 minutes. This will caramelize the BBQ sauce.

Step 11

Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve with extra BBQ sauce on the side, if desired.
