Ingredients
2 racks of baby back ribs
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 cups BBQ sauce of your choice
2 tablespoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons cracked pepper
1 tablespoon granulated garlic powder
1 tablespoon granulated onion powder
Directions
- Season ribs with salt, pepper, granulated onion powder and granulated garlic powder.
- Lay ribs meat-side down on a baking sheet with an elevated edge. Add one cup of water and cover the sheet pan completely in aluminum foil.
- Bake in 325-degree oven for approx. 2 1/2 hours or until meat is tender enough to be pulled from the bone.
- Chill the baby back ribs in the refrigerator for about one hour so that the meat doesn't fall apart.
- Apply canola oil to grill grates and heat to medium-high.
- Place ribs on grill meat-side up and baste with BBQ sauce.
- Grill for approx. 3 minutes.
- Flip so meat-side is down, and grill for 3 minutes. Apply BBQ sauce to the back of the ribs.
- Grill ribs until BBQ sauce has started to caramelize and meat has started to get crisp edges.
- Let ribs rest for 5 minutes, then brush with BBQ sauce before cutting them into 1-and 2-bone pieces.
- Serve with remaining BBQ sauce on the side for dipping.
- You can find prepared and cut racks of ribs at your local butcher or grocery store. If you have a full rack of ribs, we suggest you cut them in half if you're cooking in an oven in your home kitchen or on a standard gas grill.
