Title: Easy Ribs
Ingredients:
– 2 racks of baby back ribs
– 1 cup of your favorite barbecue sauce
– 2 tablespoons of brown sugar
– 1 tablespoon of paprika
– 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup later.
2. Remove the thin membrane from the back of the ribs. This step is optional but helps ensure your ribs are as tender as possible. Simply slide a knife under the membrane and lift it off; it should come off in one piece.
3. In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. This will be your rub for the ribs.
4. Place the ribs on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the rub generously over both sides of the ribs, patting it in to adhere.
5. Cover the ribs loosely with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 2 hours. This slow cooking method will help the ribs become tender and flavorful.
6. After 2 hours, carefully remove the foil from the ribs. Brush the barbecue sauce over the ribs, ensuring they are evenly coated.
7. Increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C) and return the ribs to the oven, uncovered. Cook for an additional 20-30 minutes, or until the sauce is caramelized and the ribs are slightly charred.
8. Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your delicious Easy Ribs with your favorite sides, like coleslaw, cornbread, or potato salad.
