Cayenne Pepper (Optional):
BBQ Sauce:
- ½ cup your favorite brand or homemade
Butter (Melted):
- 2 tablespoons for a richer crust, optional
Season the Ribs :
In a small bowl, mix salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, brown sugar, and cayenne pepper. Rub the seasoning generously over both sides of the ribs, pressing it into the meat for maximum flavor. Let the ribs sit for at least 30 minutes, or refrigerate overnight for deeper seasoning.
Bake Low and Slow :
Wrap the seasoned ribs tightly in foil to trap moisture and place them on a baking sheet. If using the optional moisture ingredients, mix apple cider vinegar, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce, then lightly brush it over the ribs before sealing the foil. Bake for 3 hours, keeping the foil sealed to ensure tenderness.
Broil for a Flavorful Crust :
Carefully remove the ribs from the oven and unwrap the foil. Brush the top of the ribs with BBQ sauce for a rich, caramelized glaze. Set your oven to broil on high and place the ribs back in for 3-5 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
