This is the way I always prepare my BBQ ribs. They result in fall off the bone tender ribs, and they are always a hit. The spices listed are what I submitted for this recipe, however I probably never use the same thing twice. Play around with those ingredients you enjoy the most. Prep time includes marinating time.

SERVES 2 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 rack of baby-back pork ribs (membrane removed)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

1
Mix brown sugar, garlic powder, and cayenne together in bowl.
2
Add salt and pepper if you wish.
3
Rub spice mixture onto ribs, both sides.
4
Wrap ribs in aluminum foil, using two sheets of foil.
5
Place ribs in fridge for at least 24 hours.
6
Remove ribs when ready to prepare and place in oven on warm.
7
(My oven goes from warm to 250°F, so I say place on warm, if your oven does have temps. lower than 250°F, I would suggest 200°F Bake ribs on warm for at least 4 hours, up to 6 hours.
8
Remove ribs, and let them sit in foil, allowing them to cool to almost room temperature.
9
Place ribs on hot fire, and baste with your favorite sauce.
10
Let ribs cook on grill for approx 15 minutes or until hot.
11
Remove ribs and let them rest for approx 10 minutes before serving.

We really liked this recipe. BF rubbed the ribs the night before and I woke at 8 and put in the oven. We cooked about 250 and when we took them out of the oven at 12 they were falling off the bone, sadly we could not get them on the grill, but the seasoning was good. Next time we plan to use this recipe but not use so much cayenne(cause of our kids) and also only cook for two and a half hours then transfer to the grill. Thanks for a wonderful starting point for these first time rib cookers

Wanted to do 4 slabs for 5 people....came packed in 2 packs I thought. Ended up doing 6 slabs - ended up feeding 12 people - and no one could remember a better rub or more tender ribs. Thank you for an always keeper!

Excellent! I added cumin and coriander to the rub plus extra garlic powder. Let them sit for 20 hours and then cooked them in the oven for the complete 6 hours on 200. Had every intention of finishing them on the grill, but it was too full at the time, so I just added the sauce during the last 45 minutes and turned the oven up to 400 and they came out PERFECT. I made the sauce recipe from the BEST BABYBACK RIBS recipe also on this site. Exactly how I like my ribs...very tender, sticky, sweet and a bit spicy!

I prepared these ribs last weekend for some out of town guests. I wanted to try something a bit different from my usual recipe and did not want to be in the kitchen all day. These ribs were extremly easy to make with ingredients readily available. I tripled the recipe as I had 4 racks and they can out perfect. We basted the ribs the last 8 minutes with a sauce a friend sent me from Illinois.......fantastic! Thanks for posting Bratty!
