Ingredients

  • 4 pounds Pork spare ribs
  • 0.5 cups Brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Paprika
  • 1 tablespoon Garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon Onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoons Cayenne pepper
  • 1.5 cups Barbeque sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 0.25 cups Apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

1. Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C). Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

2. In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper to create the dry rub.

Step 3

3. Rinse the ribs under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Remove the silver skin membrane on the backside of the ribs for better flavor absorption and tenderness.

Step 4

4. Brush the ribs lightly with olive oil on both sides, then generously rub the spice mixture all over the ribs, ensuring an even coat.

Step 5

5. Place the ribs on the prepared baking sheet, meat-side up. Cover the ribs tightly with aluminum foil to lock in moisture.

Step 6

6. Bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the ribs are tender and the meat is pulling away from the bones.

Step 7

7. While the ribs are baking, prepare the glaze by mixing the barbeque sauce and apple cider vinegar in a small saucepan. Warm over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is smooth and slightly thinned.

Step 8

8. Once the ribs are tender, remove them from the oven. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or set your oven to broil.

Step 9

9. Brush the ribs generously with the barbeque glaze on both sides. Grill the ribs for 5–7 minutes per side, or broil for 3–5 minutes in the oven, to caramelize the sauce. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.

Step 10

10. Remove the ribs from the grill or oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Slice between the bones to separate individual ribs.

Step 11

11. Serve hot with additional barbeque sauce on the side, if desired, and enjoy the soulful flavors of these tender, smoky-sweet barbequed ribs.
