Beef Back Ribs in the Oven

Steps

1. 1If your ribs have a membrane (silverskin) on the bone side, remove it: slide a butter knife under it at one end, grip with a paper towel, and peel it off. Then preheat oven to 275° Fahrenheit. Line baking sheet with sheet of aluminum foil and set aside. Place 4 pounds beef back ribs on cutting board.
2. 2Add 2 teaspoons smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper to small mixing bowl. Mix until ingredients are well blended, then cover ribs with dry rub on all sides.
3. 3Place seasoned ribs on foil-lined baking sheet, bone-side up. Cover ribs with second sheet of foil and wrap edges of foil sheets tightly to seal foil around ribs.
4. 4Place baking sheet in oven and bake ribs bone-side up for 4 hours.
5. 5After 4 hours, remove ribs from oven. Unwrap ribs and discard aluminum foil. Drain any remaining fat from baking sheet, then return ribs to baking sheet with bone side facing down.
6. 6Brush ½ cup BBQ sauce on ribs, coating ribs thoroughly on all sides.
7. 7Set broiler to High. Place baking sheet approximately 6 inches below broiler and broil 3 to 5 minutes, or until skin of ribs is crispy and caramelized.
8. 8Carefully remove baking sheet from oven. Divide ribs into preferred portions and serve warm with desired sides.
