SPARE RIBS IN OVEN

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 275-300 F (depending on how strong your oven is) and line an appropriately sized baking sheet with aluminum foil (for easy clean up), then place a sheet of parchment paper on top***
• Trim the rack of spare ribs from any excess fat, pat them dry with a paper towel. Turn the rack with the meaty side down and identify the membrane that runs across the length of the rib bones. Peel it off using a paper towel to eliminate slipperiness.
• Liberally season the rack of ribs on both sides and place onto the baking sheet. If you need to cut the rack in two to achieve a better fit, do so.
• Cover the ribs with a sheet of parchment paper, then aluminum foil - tuck it around the edges of the baking sheet to create air tight seal.
• Place in the oven for 2 hours.
• After 2 hours unwrap the cover and check the meat for tenderness. If satisfied, remove the covering, season with more dry rub or brush with BBQ sauce on both sides. (If you feel that the meat can use a little longer in the oven, go for another 20 mins and check again).
• Place the uncovered ribs back in the oven for 20-30 mins more, as needed (you want a nice crust to form and the meat to be super tender).
• Transfer to a cutting board, use tongs and a sharp chef's knife to slice the ribs, brush with BBQ sauce again (if using) and serve.

EFFORTLESS OVEN BAKED SPARERIBS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 F
• Place ribs in a covered roasting pan or Dutch oven.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper and dress with lemon slices and sprinkle over the onions.
• In a medium bowl whisk the chili sauce, mustard powder, brown sugar, molasses, orange juice and lemon juice.
• Pour half of the mixture over the ribs, cover and bake for 60 minutes, basting once with another spoonful of the sauce.
• Remove lid and continue to bake for another 45-60 minutes, basting a few time with remaining sauce and pan sauces.
• Cut into individual ribs and serve.

SIMPLE SPARE RIBS

Steps:

• Place the ribs in a roasting pan. Mix together the chicken broth, teriyaki sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Pour over the ribs. Cover, and marinate for 1/2 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cover the roasting pan with aluminum foil.
• Roast in the oven for about 2 hours, or until the meat is so tender that it comes off of the bone easily. Check occasionally to make sure the juices do not boil over into the oven, and remove some of the broth if necessary.

EASY OVEN BAKED RIBS

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 250* F.
• Season all sides of the ribs with your favorite rub.
• Using a 13x9x2 baking dish (or most likely a larger 15x11x2), place the ribs into the pan, do not over crowd. If using Baby Back slabs, place bone side facing up. If using individual Country Style (St. Louis), lay on their side.
• Cover the baking dish with foil and place on center rack of pre-heated oven. Bake for approximately 2 1/2 - 3 hours (depending on the size of the ribs you are using).
• Remove the ribs from oven and drain any grease from dish; reserving the foil for later use (waste not, want not). Flip the ribs over (meaty side up) and slather with your favorite BBQ sauce and return the dish to the oven (un-covered) for an additional 30 minutes.
• Once done, remove the ribs to a platter, loosely tent the platter with the reserved foil, and allow to rest for 10 minutes. (This step is important -- the resting period gives the ribs time to re-distribute their juices, just like a steak would).
• Enjoy!

OVEN-ROASTED SPARE RIBS

Steps:

• In a large bowl whisk together the marinade ingredients and set aside.

• Slice the racks lengthwise along the bone into individual ribs.
• Place the ribs into the bowl with the marinade and spread it all over the ribs. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• Place ribs on a sheet tray and broil, flipping once until nicely browned, about 5 minutes a side.
• Lower the oven temperature to 350º and continue cooking ribs for about 35 to 40 minutes, turning once, until cooked through. Garnish with reserved scallions and serve immediately.
