As one who has tried to cook ribs many different ways over the years, I finally found a foolproof method that turns out fall off the bone, broke da mouth, baby back ribs. Fresh market has Prime ribs and often runs a buy one pound get one free promo. So:
Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs. I use a paper towel and start at whatever is the easiest end point and pull from there. Then dry seasoning as follows: (good for a 3 lb rack)
1 Tbs Brown Sugar
1 Tbs Garlic Powder
1Tbs Onion Powder
1Tbs Kosher Salt
1Tbs Smoked Paprika
1Tsp Black Pepper
Rub both sides of the rib rack with the dry rub, wrap in plastic and refrigerate overnight. Next day, heat oven to 275 degrees. Remove plastic wrap and rewrap ribs in foil. Place on baking pan and bake for 4 hours. Switch oven to broil, uncover ribs, and baste with your favorite BBQ sauce. Broil for 10 minutes or until sauce starts to caramelize. Serve. Your mouth will thank you.
