Making ribs at home is not as hard as you might think, and with just a few ingredients, you can have delicious ribs ready in no time.
Ingredients
For barbequed pork ribs, you will need:
- 2 racks of pork ribs
- 1 cup of your favorite BBQ rub
- 1/4 cup of oil (vegetable, canola, or olive oil)
- 2 cups of your favorite barbecue sauce
- 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup of honey
Instructions
To make barbequed pork ribs, start by preheating your oven to 300 degrees. Then, rinse the ribs and pat them dry. Next, brush the ribs on both sides with the oil. Then, sprinkle your favorite BBQ rub on both sides of the ribs, rubbing it in with your fingers. Place the ribs on a baking sheet, and bake in the preheated oven for 2-2 1/2 hours, until they are tender and cooked through.
Once the ribs are cooked, remove them from the oven and preheat your grill to medium-low. Place the ribs on the grill, and brush them with the barbecue sauce. Grill the ribs on both sides for about 10 minutes, brushing with more sauce each time you turn them. Once the ribs are nicely glazed with the sauce, remove them from the grill and let them rest for about 10 minutes before serving.
