→ Barbecue Sauce
10 - 1 cup barbecue sauce (store-bought or homemade)
11 - 2 tbsp honey
12 - 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
# How To Make It:
01 - Preheat the oven to 300°F. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil.
02 - Remove the thin membrane from the back of the ribs, if present. Pat ribs dry with paper towels.
03 - Rub olive oil all over the ribs. In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and cayenne. Evenly coat the ribs with the dry rub.
04 - Place the ribs on the prepared baking sheet, meat side up. Cover tightly with foil.
05 - Bake for 2-2½ hours, until the meat is tender and pulls away from the bones.
06 - Meanwhile, mix barbecue sauce, honey, and apple cider vinegar in a bowl.
07 - Remove the ribs from the oven. Increase oven temperature to 425°F or preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
08 - Brush the ribs generously with the barbecue sauce mixture.
09 - Return to the oven uncovered, or place on the grill, and cook for 10-15 minutes, basting once, until caramelized and sticky.
10 - Rest the ribs for 5 minutes, slice between the bones, and serve with extra sauce.
