Ingredients
- 2 pounds Country-style pork ribs
- 2 teaspoons Paprika
- 2 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Barbecue sauce
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
Line a large baking sheet or roasting pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and brown sugar to create a dry rub.
Step 4
Pat the country-style pork ribs dry with paper towels and drizzle them with olive oil. Rub the oil evenly over all sides of the ribs.
Step 5
Sprinkle the dry rub evenly over the ribs, ensuring all sides are well coated.
Step 6
Place the ribs in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Cover the entire tray tightly with another layer of aluminum foil to seal in moisture.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. This will make the ribs tender and juicy.
Step 8
Carefully remove the foil from the top of the ribs, then brush them generously with barbecue sauce.
Step 9
Return the ribs to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the barbecue sauce is caramelized and slightly sticky.
Step 10
Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 11
Serve warm with extra barbecue sauce on the side, if desired, and enjoy!
