Best Ever Oven BBQ Ribs are moist, fall off the bone pork, smothered in a crispy, caramelized BBQ sauce. Slow cooking in the oven leaves the ribs with a perfect “bite” that is totally worth the wait!
Delicious, fall off the bone ribs are one of my family’s favorite meals. Oh, the joy of enjoying BBQ ribs year round!
I used to think that ribs were only for grilling. That the only way to get succulent, flavor infused ribs was to slowly cook them over the coals. That method is very labor intensive and time-consuming. My goal was to produce great restaurant flavor, but at home in the oven.
How to make the Best Ever Oven BBQ Ribs
The ingredients are simple. Just a full slab of Baby Back Pork Ribs, a bottle of your favorite BBQ Sauce, and the ingredients for the rub.
Preheat the oven to 300 Degrees.
- In small bowl, create a rub of 3/4 cup brown sugar, and 1 Tablespoon each of Garlic Powder, Paprika and Smokehouse Maple Seasoning
2. Remove the tough membrane from the back of the ribs. The easiest way is to get one end started, grip with paper towel, and tear completely off.
3. On a large baking pan, place the ribs on a large sheet of heavy duty foil, or two large sheets of regular foil. Using the rub, apply 1/2 to the meaty side, rubbing into the meat. Turn the meat over, meaty side down, and apply the other 1/2 of the rub to the bone side. Rub all over, including the sides.
4. Place a second sheet of heavy duty foil on top of the ribs, and seal the top and bottom foil into a packet around the ribs. Place into preheated oven and bake for 2 hours, or until the meat is pulling away from the bone.
5. Open up the foil and cut the ribs into serving size pieces. Cover one side of the ribs with BBQ Sauce and place uncovered back in the oven for 10 minutes. Remove the ribs from the oven, turn the ribs over on the baking pan, coat second side with BBQ Sauce and place uncovered back in the oven for a final 10 minutes.
6. Plate the ribs with your favorite side dish and serve hot!

Hi Lina, so sorry about that. The written out recipe on the post says to preheat the oven to 300 degrees, but the YUM recipe card was missing that information. Thank you so much for letting me know! I have corrected the error:) Hugs- Christine
This looks great! But what temperature should the oven be set to?
