Ingredients

  • 4 pounds Pork baby back ribs
  • 1 cup Brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Paprika
  • 1 tablespoon Garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon Onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
  • 0.5 cup Apple cider vinegar
  • 1.5 cups Ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons Yellow mustard
  • 0.25 cup Honey
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Liquid smoke
  • 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C).

Step 2

Prepare the ribs by removing the thin membrane from the back of the ribs for better tenderness. Pat the ribs dry with paper towels.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Generously coat both sides of the ribs with the dry rub, ensuring an even distribution.

Step 5

Place the ribs on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil, meat side up, and cover them tightly with another layer of foil.

Step 6

Bake the ribs in the preheated oven for 3 hours, or until they are tender and easily pull away from the bone.

Step 7

While the ribs are baking, prepare the BBQ sauce. In a medium saucepan, combine the apple cider vinegar, ketchup, yellow mustard, honey, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, and vegetable oil.

Step 8

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently, and cook for 15-20 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Step 9

Remove the baked ribs from the oven and carefully transfer them to a grill preheated to medium-high heat (about 400°F/200°C).

Step 10

Brush the ribs generously with the BBQ sauce and grill for 5-7 minutes per side, basting often, until they develop a caramelized, sticky glaze.

Step 11

Remove the ribs from the grill and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing into individual ribs.

Step 12

Serve warm with additional BBQ sauce on the side and enjoy!
