Ingredients
- 3 lbs Country style pork ribs
- 1 tbsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 1 tsp Onion powder
- 2 tbsp Brown sugar
- 1.5 cups BBQ sauce
- 2 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, and brown sugar to create the dry rub.
Step 3
Rinse the country style pork ribs and pat them dry with paper towels.
Step 4
Drizzle olive oil over the ribs and rub it evenly to coat. Then, generously apply the dry rub on all sides of the ribs, making sure they're well seasoned.
Step 5
Place the ribs in a single layer in a roasting pan or a baking dish, and cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil.
Step 6
Bake the ribs in the preheated oven for 2.5 hours to allow them to tenderize.
Step 7
While the ribs are baking, combine the BBQ sauce and apple cider vinegar in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally. Let it simmer for 5 minutes, then set aside.
Step 8
After 2.5 hours, remove the ribs from the oven and carefully drain any excess liquid from the pan.
Step 9
Brush the BBQ sauce mixture generously over the ribs, coating them completely.
Step 10
Increase the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and return the ribs to the oven, uncovered, for an additional 20-30 minutes. Baste with more BBQ sauce halfway through cooking.
Step 11
Once the ribs are caramelized and the sauce is sticky, remove them from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 12
Serve warm with your favorite sides, such as coleslaw, baked beans, or cornbread.
