Cooking Ribs in an Oven Recipe
Ingredients
- Ribs (baby back, spare, St. Louis style, etc.)
- Barbecue sauce (or any other desired sauce or seasoning)
- Water
- Brown sugar or honey
- Pepper and salt (to taste)
- The ribs’ seasonings include garlic, onion, brown sugar, paprika, cumin, chili powder, etc.
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 275°F (135°C).
- Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs.
- Season the ribs with your desired rub or seasoning. The seasonings, which include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and brown sugar, should have been mixed in a separate bowl.
- Ensure the aluminum foil is well wrapped to prevent steam from escaping as you securely wrap the ribs.
- The wrapped ribs should be baked for 2.5 to 3 hours on a baking sheet in a preheated oven.
- After removing the ribs from the oven, carefully remove the foil covering.
- Brush the ribs with your desired BBQ sauce.
- Increase the oven temperature to 400°F (205°C).
- Put the ribs back in the oven and cook for 10 to 15 minutes until the sauce has caramelized and the ribs begin to get crispy outside.
- Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes
If you prefer well-done meat, cook the ribs until they reach a higher temperature. Additionally, the meat should be tender and easily pulled away from the bone.
