Place the wrapped ribs on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the ribs are tender and the meat easily pulls away from the bone.
Finish with Barbecue Sauce:
Carefully remove the ribs from the foil and discard any excess fat.
Brush the ribs generously with barbecue sauce on both sides.
Return the ribs to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 20-30 minutes. This step will caramelize the barbecue sauce and give the ribs a nice, sticky finish.
Rest and Serve:
Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Cut the ribs between the bones and serve with extra barbecue sauce on the side if desired.
Tips for Success:
Low and Slow: Cooking the ribs at a low temperature ensures they become tender without drying out.
Wrapping in Foil: Wrapping the ribs in foil helps to retain moisture and makes the meat more tender.
Resting: Allowing the ribs to rest after baking helps the juices redistribute and makes for a more flavorful bite.
These oven-baked ribs are sure to be a hit whether you’re serving them for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. Enjoy the juicy, flavorful goodness! 🍖
