Step 1

Prepare the ribs by removing the thin membrane or silverskin on the bone side. Discard the membrane and set the ribs aside.

Step 2

Combine all dry rub ingredients in a small bowl and combine.

Step 3

Sprinkle the dry rub liberally all over both sides of the ribs and gently rub it in. Be especially generous on the meat side. For the best flavor, let the meat sit with the rub on them for a minimum of 30 minutes. Or, you can refrigerate the pork and let it sit for up to 12 hours.

Step 4

When you are ready to bake the ribs, preheat the oven to 300 degrees °F.

Step 5

Before cooking, wrap the racks of racks securely in two layers of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Then, place the package on a rimmed baking sheet.

Step 6

Put the baking sheet in the oven and bake the meat for one hour and thirty minutes. Or, cook until an instant-read meat thermometer reads 190 °F or the meat starts pulling away from the bone and is tender.

Step 7

When the meat is done, open the foil packet and pull it back. Liberally brush on your favorite barbecue sauce. Turn up the heat to 350 °F and let the ribs cook for an additional 30 minutes or until the sauce has caramelized.

Step 8

Optional, if you like a little char on your meat, turn on the broiler and let the ribs cook for a minute or so until the outside is charred in places.

Step 9

Use a sharp knife and slice the ribs before serving.

Step 10

Serve immediately with plenty of napkins and extra barbecue sauce!
