Easy Baby Back Ribs

Ingredients

  • 1 rack baby back ribs (you can cook as many racks as you want at the same time)

  • 1 tablespoon paprika

  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar use a brown sugar substitute for low carb option

  • 2 teaspoons salt

  • 2 teaspoons ground black pepper

  • 2 teaspoons chili powder Use mild to hot, depending on your taste preferences

  • 2 teaspoons onion powder

  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon mustard powder

  • 1/2 cup bbq sauce

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 275° F.

  • Rinse and pat the ribs dry with a paper towel. Remove the silver skin membrane from the underside.

  • Coat the ribs with the dry rub. It's not necessary, but if you have time, cover and let sit in the refrigerator for 2 hours or overnight to enhance flavor.

  • Wrap the ribs in foil on a baking sheet, sealing the edges tightly to create a packet.

  • Cook in the oven for 2 hours. You’ll know it’s ready when the meat pulls back from the bone and becomes fork tender. Continue cooking until the bone gives easily when pulled (up to 4 hours for larger rack of ribs).

  • Peel back the foil and discard any juices. Baste the ribs with BBQ sauce.
