Fall off the Bone: Baby Back Ribs in the Oven

Step 1

Pre-Heat your oven to 325° and cover a sheet pan large enough to hold your rack of ribs in foil. Lay down an extra large loose sheet of foil to wrap your ribs in.

Step 2

Then, mix together salt, pepper, granulated garlic, granulated onion, red chili powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, and cumin to make the dry rub.

Step 3

Pat the rack of baby back ribs dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

Step 4

Season the meat with the dry rub and use your hands to work it into the meat and spread it evenly across the whole rack.

Step 5

Wrap your ribs right side up in foil. Make sure they are completely covered and that the foil makes a nice sealed packet to keep the juices in.

Step 6

Place in the oven and let cook at 325° for 2 hours.

Step 7

After two hours have passed, remove ribs from the oven, and let red for 10 minutes.

Step 8

Carefully open the foil packet to expose the ribs. Brush the cooked ribs with barbecue sauce and place uncovered under a low broiler for 5 minutes.

Step 9

After 5 minutes, brush on more barbecue sauce and place ribs back under the broiler for approximately 5 more minute or until the ribs are well browned and the sauce is sticky.

Step 10

Be sure to watch it carefully as every oven is different. Be sure to leave at least 6 inches between the rack of ribs and the broiler coil in the oven.
