Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C).
- In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, paprika, black pepper, salt, chili powder, garlic powder, and onion powder to create a spice rub.
- Generously rub the spice mixture all over the pork ribs, ensuring both sides are well-coated for maximum flavor.
- Place the seasoned ribs on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil, and cover them tightly with another layer of foil to lock in moisture.
- Roast the ribs in the preheated oven for 2.5 hours, allowing them to become tender and flavorful.
- After 2.5 hours, remove the ribs from the oven and increase the temperature to 350°F (175°C).
- Brush a generous amount of barbecue sauce all over the ribs, ensuring they are fully coated.
- Return the ribs to the oven, uncovered, and roast for an additional 30 minutes, or until the barbecue sauce is caramelized and sticky.
- Once done, let the ribs rest for a few minutes before slicing into individual portions and serving.
Tips
- For an extra kick, add cayenne pepper to the spice rub for a spicier flavor.
- Experiment with different barbecue sauces, such as honey mustard or spicy chipotle, to find your favorite combination.
- Serve the ribs with classic sides like coleslaw, cornbread, or baked beans for a complete meal.
