No-Fuss Easy Oven-Baked Beef Ribs
Description
Beef back ribs are separated and laid fat-side down on a foil-lined baking sheet, ensuring ribs don't touch for even heat distribution. Baking at moderate oven temperature cooks the ribs gently, rendering fat and tenderizing the meat over 45 minutes. After initial cooking, ribs are brushed with barbecue sauce, enhancing flavor and creating a glaze during the final 15 minutes of baking. An optional additional sauce coating intensifies the taste and texture.
The ribs develop a tender but meaty texture with a glossy, rich barbecue sauce surface. This baking method avoids grilling or smoking, offering a straightforward approach requiring minimal active time. The dish pairs well with typical barbecue accompaniments such as coleslaw or baked beans.
For larger or meatier ribs, additional cooking time may be necessary. A serving size of three ribs per person is advised when served with sides. For bigger groups, multiple racks can be baked simultaneously, swapping positions halfway to cook evenly.
