Ingredients

1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 tablespoon fine sea salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
4 pounds beef back ribs, bone-in
1 teaspoon olive or avocado oil
1/2 cup barbecue sauce, homemade or store-bought

Directions

Step 1 – Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.

Step 2 – Line an 18×26-inch baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Step 3 – In a large bowl, add the garlic powder, the onion powder, the paprika, the sea salt, and the black pepper and stir to combine.

Step 4 – Place the ribs on the prepared baking sheet and use a pastry brush to coat them with the olive oil. Then, evenly cover them with the spice rub.

Step 5 – Arrange the ribs so that the meaty side is facing up, then cover the entire baking sheet with foil, folding the edges to seal.

Step 6 – Bake the ribs until the meat starts to pull away from the bone and they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees F, about 3 hours.

Step 7 – Transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack and discard the top layer of foil.

Step 8 – Increase the oven temperature to 325 degrees F.

Step 9 – Use a pastry brush to coat all sides of the ribs with the barbeque sauce.

Step 10 – Bake the barbecue ribs, about 20 minutes.
