Oven BBQ ribs instructions

Preheat the oven to 120C. This heat might seem low, but it’s sufficient for cooking the meat as long as cooking time is appropriate..
Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs. I like to use a spoon to get under the membrane and a kitchen towel to grip the membrane. I would recommend watching a video of someone doing this on YouTube, it’ll be much clearer..
Apply the dry rub liberally all around the meat. Press it in to prevent it from fall off when moving to the oven..
Cover a baking tray with aluminum foil to make cleanup easy, then wrap the ribs in a pouch of foil. This keeps the moisture in whilst cooking to prevent them from drying out..
Bake for 2 hours in the foil membrane facing up. Then carefully unwrap it and apply a layer of bbq sauce to both sides. The membrane side should now be facing down. Reseal the pouch and cook for 30 more minutes..
Finally, unwrap the foil on top and apply a layer of bbq sauce to the top of the ribs. Broil/grill under high heat to caramelize the bbq sauce, then remove the ribs from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before eating..

Flip the ribs over using two spatulas (and an extra set of hands if you have them) so the meat side is up. Be careful, as they may be so tender they fall apart. Remove from oven and serve them up with a side of potato salad and some baked beans. Ribs in the oven are easy to make and come out perfectly tender every single time. These barbecue ribs have been dubbed the "best ribs ever" by my friends and family every time I make them.
