Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 2 racks Baby back ribs Main protein, tender and juicy
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce Flavor base, adds sweetness
  • 1/2 cup Brown sugar Gives a sticky glaze
  • 1/4 cup Honey Enhances sweetness and glaze
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder Adds depth of flavor
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder Enhances savory flavor
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika Adds smokiness

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Pat the ribs dry and remove the silvery membrane from the back.
  • Rub the seasoning mix all over both sides of the ribs.
  • Cover the ribs in foil and bake in a preheated oven at 300°F for 2 to 2.5 hours.

Cooking

  • After the ribs have cooked, slather on the BBQ glaze.
  • Increase the oven heat to 425°F or finish on the grill.
  • Cook for an additional 15-20 minutes, glazing every 5 minutes until sticky and caramelized.

Serving

  • Let the ribs rest for about 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

For the perfect glaze, use both brown sugar and honey, and baste with multiple layers for better stickiness. Resting the ribs helps the glaze thicken.
