Melt in Your Mouth Oven Barbecue Ribs

I was so surprised at how easy and delicious these Oven Barbecue Ribs are! The recipe can be done with baby back or regular pork ribs. The ribs are tender, moist and just slide off of the bone.

Oven Barbecue Ribs

The best ribs I have ever made, and some of the best I have ever had!

I have also made split chickens this way.

Melt in Your Mouth Oven Barbecue Ribs
Ingredients
  • 4 lbs pork ribs
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon hickory smoke salt
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper optional
  • 2 cups of your favorite barbecue sauce mine is Sweet Baby Ray
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees f.
  2. Peel off the tough membrane that covers the bony side of the ribs.
  3. Mix together the sugar and spices to make the rub. Apply the rub to ribs on all sides. Lay the ribs on two layers of foil, shiny side out and meaty side down.
  4. Lay two layers of foil on top of ribs and roll and crimp edges tightly, edges facing up to seal.
  5. Place on baking sheet and bake for 2-2 1/2 hours or until the meat is starting to shrink away from the ends of the bone. Remove from the oven.
  6. Heat broiler.
  7. Cut the ribs into serving sized portions of 2 or 3 ribs. Arrange on the broiler pan, bony side up. Brush on the sauce.
  8. Broil for 1 or 2 minutes until sauce is cooked on and bubbly. Turn the ribs over. Repeat on the other side. Alternately, you can grill the ribs on your grill to cook on the sauce.

Enjoy!
