Eating ribs is one of my favorite pastimes. As a kid, we never had ribs as I am guessing they just cost way too much when you’re feeding a family of 7. However, my best friend always had ribs at her house as it was just her and her dad. I loved going over there when he made ribs on the grill and sometimes in the oven, too! Boy oh boy, did they ever taste good and I got to eat as many as I wanted which was a plus.
Check out what my pal Shar had to say about this recipe:
My dad would make ribs all the time and his recipe was amazing.
I totally agree with you, Shar!
Ingredients
one rack of pork baby back ribs
freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup dry rub
1/2 cup Sweet Baby Ray’s barbecue sauce
Instructions
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
Remove excess fat from ribs. Peel the silver skin off the back of the ribs – lift with a sharp knife and grab with a paper towel to remove.
Cut ribs apart into individual pieces, then rub each one all over with freshly squeezed lemon juice.
Coat ribs with dry rub. Place meat side down in large baking pan, cover tightly with foil, shiny side out.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 2 1/2 hours.
Remove from oven and pour off liquid.
Brush barbecue sauce over all sides of ribs.
Grill: To finish ribs on the grill, remove from the pan and place ribs on the grill (I use a basket over direct but low heat) basting and turning a few times for about 10 minutes.
Oven: To finish ribs in the oven, set oven to broil and return ribs to the same oven rack, uncovered, basting and broiling about 5 minutes per side, watching so they don’t burn. They will be so tender, it’s best to turn them using gloved hands.
