Boneless Country Style Ribs Dry Rub

1. Add paprika, marjoram, oregano, thyme, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder and salt to a mixing bowl. Stir together until combined.
2. Sprinkle the rub evenly onto a plate or a pie plate, then rub the ribs in it until they are coated on all sides. Cook the ribs using either the slow-bake method or the high-temperature method (see notes).

For the slow-bake method:*

1. Heat the oven to 300 degrees F.
2. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and set a wire rack on the foil.
3. Set the ribs on the wire rack, then cover the entire baking sheet with aluminum foil. Make sure to seal the foil well all around the edges of the baking sheet.
4. Bake the ribs for 2 ½ hours. Take the baking sheet out of the oven. Carefully remove the top foil (there will be a lot of very hot steam underneath!). Serve the ribs with potato salad.

For the high-temperature method:**

1. Coat the inside of a cast iron pan or cast iron grill pan with a little bit of vegetable oil. Set the pan into the cold oven.
2. Heat the oven to 400 degrees F. with the pan in it.
3. Once the oven is hot, set the ribs into the hot pan. Cook until the ribs have reached an internal temperature of 160 degrees F. (15 to 20 minutes). Flip the ribs half-way through the cook time. Serve the ribs with potato salad.
