The Best BBQ Baby Back Ribs

Ingredients

• 6 pounds baby back ribs ((pork loin ribs) about 2 to 3 racks)
• 1 cup bbq sauce
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground pepper
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 325 F degrees.

2. 2

   Remove the membrane or silverskin from the bottom side of the ribs. Flip over the rib rack so you are looking at the bottom side (the side without the meat.) Go to one end of the rib rack, using a knife slide it under the silverskin and pull. It should peel right off in one swipe. Set aside.

3. 3

   Combine the spice rub: In a small bowl whisk together all the dry rub ingredients. Rub the dry rub over the ribs generously, and place the racks in a large roasting pan fitted with a rack.

4. 4

   Cook the ribs: Add 1/2 inch of water to the bottom of the roasting pan. Cover with aluminum foil completely and place in the oven. Bake for 3 hours then remove the foil and place under the broiler for 5 to 7 minutes per side.

5. 5

   Finish the ribs: Slather the ribs on both sides with BBQ sauce and let the ribs rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
