Instructions

  1. First, preheat oven to 275 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. In a small bowl, combine all seasonings and date sugar.
  3. Remove ribs from plastic casing and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. If ribs hang over edge of sheet, cut them in half and place 2 racks side by side on baking sheet.
  4. Pat ribs dry with a paper towel. Rub seasonings all over both sides of ribs.
  5. Then, bake meat side up (bone side down) for 3.5 to 4 hours, until ribs are tender. Turn off oven but keep ribs in oven.
  6. Keep ribs in oven for 1 hour with oven heat turned off.
  7. After 1 hour, brush on BBQ sauce to both sides of ribs. Broil in oven for 5 minutes or move to grill and grill for 5 minutes to caramelize sauce.
  8. Finally, remove from heat and serve.

Notes

  • If rack of ribs is longer than baking sheet, cut ribs in half.  Place 2 racks side by side on parchment lined baking sheet.
  • Rub seasonings all over both sides of ribs.
  • Bake in oven with meat side up and bone side down.  Do not flip.
  • After the initial baking time, turn oven OFF but keep ribs in oven.  This keeps the ribs extra tender.
  • At this point, ribs should be fall off the bone tender.
  • Brush BBQ sauce on and either broil or grill for 5 minutes to allow sauce to caramelize.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat, place ribs on lined baking sheet.  Cook at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for 7 to 8 minutes or so, until warmed.
  • Omit sugar for Whole30.
