Baked Barbecue Ribs

What's up, foodies? Y'all doing good? You good? You good? I'm good! You good? Okay, good! Today I am sharing my recipe for baked barbecue ribs. Don't get me wrong, I love a good rib that's been cooked on the grill, however, I really don't like grilling....at least not when it's hot outside. If I do grill, I'd prefer to do it during the colder parts of the year..I just don't like being hot.

I have done these many, many times before, but I decided that the next time I make them, I am going to make my own rub to put on them. I have never made any type of rub before and I think I did pretty good on it. I am sure that there is something way better then what I created, but hey, I'm a newbie.

I really love ribs, but I don't eat them that much because I will eat an entire rack (and then some) with no hesitation. You can use your favorite store brand of rub or if you have your own recipe you can use it. I really hope you enjoy this sticky delight.

Ingredients:

- 1 rack of ribs (any type of your choice)
- 1 bottle of barbecue sauce
Dry Rub
- 3 tbsp. brown sugar
- 2 tsp. garlic powder
- 2 tsp. chili powder
- 1 tsp.salt
- 1 tsp. paprika
- 1 tsp. chipotle chili pepper (optional)
- 1/2 tsp.black pepper
- 1 tsp. ground mustard
- 1 tsp. onion poweder
- 1 tsp. meat tenderizer (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Mix all of the rub ingredients together until everything is well combined. Remove the membrane from the bottom of the ribs (if you choose- see video). Generously rub the dry rub seasoning all over the ribs (you will have extra). Wrap the ribs tightly in foil and bake for 2 hours or until cooked through. When the ribs are done, discard all of the liquid. Spread a layer of barbecue sauce on the ribs and then place them back into the over for ten minutes. Repeat this step two or three time to build a layer of barbecue sauce on the ribs. You can also just place the ribs under the broiler in the oven for a few minutes to stick to the ribs.
