Fall Off the Bone Oven Baked Pork Spareribs 19-Feb-2016
This looks like a super delightful recipe, and easy, too.
Ingredients
- 1 rack (approx. 5 pounds) of pork spareribs or baby back ribs
- Commercial or homemade barbecue sauce – look for gluten-free
Dry Rub
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 20 turns of the pepper grinder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon of white pepper
- 1/4 cup of brown sugar
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 250 degrees F. Ribs will cook for a total time of 4 hours.
-
Combine all of the dry rub ingredients in a small bowl.
-
Prepare the rack by removing the membrane from the back of the ribs and cutting away that extra little flap of tough meat across the top - just discard that or save for another use.
-
Line a baking pan with aluminum foil.
-
On the bottom side of the ribs, sprinkle on a generous amount of the dry rub and rub it in.
-
Set the ribs on the baking pan with the seasoned side down, and apply the remaining dry rub on the top side.
-
Roast uncovered at 250 degrees F for 2 hours.
After the ribs have cooked for 2 hours
((whew))
-
Remove them from the oven and pour some of the sauce over the top of the ribs. Using a brush, gently spread the sauce all over the ribs.
-
Cover the entire pan tightly with aluminum foil and return to the oven, baking for an additional 2 hours, or until the meat begins to pull away from the bone.
-
If you like, unwrap, brush with a bit of sauce and finish under the broiler for a minute or so.
-
When ready to serve, brush a little extra sauce on each serving but definitely serve with a side of sauce for dipping.
