Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 275°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil.
  2. In a small bowl whisk together chili powder, brown sugar, smoked paprika, cumin, oregano, salt, red pepper flakes, and black pepper.
  3. Place the ribs on the prepared pan and rub all sides with the rub mixture. Cover tightly with foil. Cook for 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours. Open the foil and check the ribs with a fork: they should be tender. If they are still tough, cover and cook for an additional 30 minutes or until they are tender
  4. Remove the pan from the oven and drain some of the juices if your ribs have a lot of juice. Generously brush the ribs with barbecue sauce.
  5. Place the pan back into the oven and cook uncovered for an additional 45 to 60 minutes or until the ribs are very tender.
  6. If desired, turn your oven on to broil and broil the ribs for 3 to 4 minutes or until lightly charred.

Notes

  • Ensure your ribs come from the shoulder, not the loin. This method is not intended for Country style ribs labeled "loin".
  • Cooking country-style pork ribs very low and slow breaks down the connective tissues to make tender ribs. The cooking time can vary slightly as some ribs are cut thicker or are more meaty than other cuts.  
  • If the ribs are tough, they likely need more time—cover them tightly with foil and place them back in the oven, checking every 30 minutes. These ribs can be cooked at 250°F for a longer amount of time if desired.
  • Onion powder, garlic powder, or other herbs and spices can be added to the rub mixture if desired.
