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. 2

    Preheat your oven to 275° F.

  3. 3

    Rinse 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. 4

    Evenly season both sides with Kosher salt (see note) and dry rub.

  5. 5

    Wrap and tightly seal the rib racks in aluminum foil and place on a baking sheet.

  6. 6

    --- Bake the Ribs ---

  7. 7

    Place 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. 8

    Remove 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. 10

    Turn the oven to broil.

  11. 11

    Baste BBQ sauce generously on both sides of the ribs.

  12. 12

    Place 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. 13

    As soon as the ribs are out of the oven, brush on a little more BBQ sauce while they are piping hot.

  14. 14

    Rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
