Here's everything you need for these mouthwatering ribs. You can make your own sauce or use store-bought. But we think you can just enjoy them bare since they have enough flavor on there own.

Let's Get Started…

Ingredients To Gather:

• 2 to 2-1/2 pounds spare ribs or baby back pork ribs
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 2 to 4 tablespoons spice rub, optional (use your favorite rub)
• 1/2 to 1 cup Bacon Bourbon Barbecue Sauce or your favorite store-bought or homemade sauce

Directions To Follow:

1. Prepare Ribs: Heat oven to 275º F and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
2. Place the ribs meat side down on the work surface then locate the thin membrane that covers the rack. Since this membrane can become tough when cooked, we prefer to remove it. To remove it, use a butter knife and gently slide it under the membrane. Wiggle it from side to side until you can get your fingers under it. Then simply pull the membrane away from the ribs and discard. You might find that you need to use the knife to loosen the membrane a few times since we almost never get it all in one go.
3. Trim excess fat then generously season both sides of the ribs with salt, pepper and/or your favorite spice rub.

Special Note: 

Seasoning the ribs can be done in advance — a nice idea when using a spice rub — simply season the ribs then wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate.

Continued Directions: 

1. Bake Ribs: Lay the ribs on the prepared baking sheet and cover with foil to prevent them from drying out during baking.
2. Bake until fork tender, 2-1/2 to 3 hours.
3. Broil Ribs: Turn broiler to high then brush the ribs with barbecue sauce on both sides until well coated. Be careful when you turn them — the meat will be extremely tender.
4. Broil the ribs just until the barbecue sauce begins to bubble and caramelize, 3 to 5 minutes. Let ribs rest 5 to 10 minutes then cut into either single ribs or into sets of 3 or 6 ribs. Serve with leftover barbecue sauce on the side.

Finished!

These ribs definitely taste like you spent all day cooking them over a red-hot grill, but you only need a couple of hours to create this BBQ masterpiece. This recipe serves two to three people, but you might want to make extra because we can guarantee everyone's going to want seconds.

Happy Baking & Enjoy!
