Ingredients
Directions 7 steps | 215 Minutes
Preheat the oven to 250°F. Measure and prep all ingredients.

Prepare the rub. In a bowl, combine the dark brown sugar, smoked paprika, chili powder, granulated garlic, onion powder, ground black pepper, kosher salt and cayenne pepper. Mix until well combined.

Prepare the ribs. Line a baking sheet with a piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil large enough to encase your ribs. Coat the ribs with the prepared rub on both sides, ending with the fattier side of the ribs facing up.

Tightly fold the aluminum foil around the ribs. Bake the ribs for about 2½-3 hours until the ribs start to become tender.

Unfold the aluminum foil around the ribs and baste with the barbecue sauce. Return the ribs to the oven and bake, uncovered for 45-60 minutes until a fork easily penetrates the meat.

Remove the ribs from the oven and turn the oven to broil. Baste the ribs with the barbecue sauce and broil until the edges start to caramelize, about 2-3 minutes.

Serve with a side of potato salad, mac and cheese and/or cole slaw. Enjoy!
