How to make the most delicious, fall-off-the-bone tender and flavorful BBQ ribs in the oven.

📝 Ingredients

  • 1 rack pork ribs ((baby back or spare ribs))
  • 2 tsp Diamond kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup dry rub
  • 1/3 cup BBQ sauce

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1--- Prep the Ribs ---
  2. 2Preheat your oven to 275° F.
  3. 3Rinse and dry the ribs with paper towels. Remove the membrane from the back side by sliding a butter knife under the membrane about 3 bones in, and using a paper towel to peel it back.
  4. 4Evenly season both sides with Kosher salt (see note) and dry rub.
  5. 5Wrap and tightly seal the rib racks in aluminum foil and place on a baking sheet.
  6. 6--- Bake the Ribs ---
  7. 7Place in the oven on the middle rack and bake for 2 hours. Check the tenderness of the ribs, and continue to bake if they need more time.
  8. 8Remove from the oven and remove from the foil but leave on the baking sheet. Rest on the counter for 10 to 15 minutes.
  9. 9--- To Finish ---
  10. 10Turn the oven to broil.
  11. 11Baste BBQ sauce generously on both sides of the ribs.
  12. 12Place the ribs under the broiler for 2 to 5 minutes to caramelize the sauce a little and add some color. Watch carefully so they don't burn.
  13. 13As soon as the ribs are out of the oven, brush on a little more BBQ sauce while they are piping hot.
  14. 14Rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
