Fall off the Bone Ribs Recipe
Description
This recipe prepares baby back ribs (or alternatives like country style or spare ribs) that have been marinated in a mixture of mayonnaise, garlic, onions, salt, pepper, and seasoning blends including bay leaves. The marinade helps tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor before baking.
The ribs are baked covered with foil at a moderate oven temperature for two hours, allowing the fat to render and the meat to become very tender. After draining off the excess fat, the ribs are coated with barbecue sauce and baked again uncovered to caramelize the sauce and achieve a moist, flavorful finish. Additional baking time can be adjusted based on the juiciness of the ribs.
This dish works well as a main course accompanied by traditional barbecue sides or salads. The slow-cooked texture and bold saucing makes it suitable for casual, satisfying meals.
