IngredientsRibsAbout 2-1/2 pounds baby back pork ribs or your favorite ribsSalt and pepper or your favorite BBQ rub BBQ sauce1 tablespoon olive oil1/4 cup finely diced onion1/2 teaspoon ground cumin1/2 cup ketchup1 tablespoon hot chili sauce like Sriracha2 tablespoons light brown sugar or to taste1 tablespoon apple cider vinegarSalt and ground pepper, to taste InstructionsPreheat your oven to 275. Season ribs: If your ribs still have a thin membrane on the back, remove it. Generously season both sides of the ribs with salt and pepper. If using a spice rub, apply it evenly.Wrap very tightly with foil: Important so ribs don’t dry out during cooking. Place the ribs, meatiest-side down, in roasting pan. Cover tightly with aluminum foil. The ribs must be well-sealed to prevent drying out. If you’re doubling the recipe and don’t have a large enough pan, wrap the racks of ribs individually in tight foil packets and place them on the baking sheet. Bake: Bake for 2 ½ to 3 ½ hours or until meat easily falls from bones. Check after 2 hours. Ribs are ready when the meat is cooked through and very tender. It will not have gotten brown, so don’t worry. Mine took close to 3 hours.BBQ Sauce:Heat olive oil in pan over medium heat, then add onions and cook until soft. Don’t let them brown.Stir in cumin, ketchup, chili sauce, sugar and vinegar. Cook for a couple of minutes, season with salt and more of any one ingredient that you think it needs. Brush sauce onto ribs after baking: Generously brush both sides with barbecue sauce.Broil ribs: Broil on high ribs until sauce begins to caramelize, about 3 to 4 minutes. Keep a close eye on them during this step to ensure the sauce doesn’t burn. ***** Full list of guestsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
