Baby Back Ribs

Hi everyone!

It’s What’s Cookin’? Wednesday!

I don’t know about anyone else, but I’ve never had any luck when it comes to preparing ribs for dinner.  If I bake them, they come out dry… if I put them in the crock pot, they are just a sloppy mess of grease… and if I put them on the grill, they always burn.

And then…. I found this awesome fool-proof recipe.  Now my ribs ROCK!

Baby Back Ribs

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Cook/Bake Time: 3 hours

Total Time: 3 hours, 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 slabs baby back ribs (I’ve tried using other cuts, but baby back is the absolute BEST!)
  • 1 package onion soup mix
  • BBQ sauce

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 275 degrees.
  2. Line a large baking sheet with foil- shiny side out.
  3. Remove the white membrane from the bony side of each slab.
  4. Rub the dry onion soup mix on both sides of each slab of ribs.
  5. Place ribs meat side down and cover tightly with foil.
  6. Bake for approximately 2-1/2 hours, or until meat begins to pull away from the bone.
  7. Remove ribs from the oven and slice into serving sized portions (3-4 ribs).
  8. Brush each section generously with BBQ sauce.
  9. Return to oven (uncovered) for about 15 minutes.
  10. Remove from oven and turn ribs over to meaty side up. Brush generously with BBQ sauce.
  11. Return to oven (uncovered) for another 15 minutes.

Notes

***Baking times are approximate and may need to be adjusted depending on your oven.

That’s it!  These ribs are so tender that they literally fall off the bone- just like at your favorite restaurant. They taste sooooooo good, require minimal effort, and there’s virtually NO MESS to clean up!
