Ingredients

  • 2 racks Baby back ribs
  • 0.5 cup Brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Paprika
  • 1 tablespoon Garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon Onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons Salt
  • 2 teaspoons Black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
  • 1 cup Barbecue sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Honey
  • 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C).

Step 2

Remove the membrane from the back of the rib racks to ensure tender meat. Pat the ribs dry with paper towels.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Generously rub the spice mixture all over both sides of the ribs, pressing it into the meat.

Step 5

Wrap the ribs tightly in aluminum foil, creating a sealed packet, and place them on a baking sheet meat-side up.

Step 6

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

Step 7

While the ribs are baking, prepare the glaze by mixing the barbecue sauce, honey, and apple cider vinegar in a small saucepan. Heat over low heat, stirring occasionally, until warmed through and well combined.

Step 8

Remove the ribs from the oven and carefully open the foil packets (be cautious of the steam). Discard any liquid accumulated in the foil.

Step 9

Brush a generous layer of the barbecue glaze on both sides of the ribs.

Step 10

Increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C) or preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 11

Place the glazed ribs back onto the baking sheet (or directly onto the grill grates) and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes, basting with more glaze halfway through, until the glaze is sticky and caramelized.

Step 12

Remove the ribs from the oven or grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with extra barbecue sauce on the side if desired.
