Ingredients

  • 1 1 rack of pork ribs your choice of spare ribs or baby back ribs
  • 1 1 tablespoon extra coarse sea salt or 1 1/2 teaspoon fine salt
  • 1 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 1 1 tablespoon smoked chipotle powder
  • 1 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 1 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 180 °C (350 °F)
  2. Prepare the sugar-free dry rub by mixing the salt, smoked paprika and chipotle, and garlic and onion powders in a small bowl.
  3. Lay the ribs on the aluminum foil, and rub the spice mix all over them, including the back and sides.
  4. Wrap the foil tightly around the ribs. Use a double layer if the foil is flimsy, and ensure there are no holes.
  5. Put the foil wrapped ribs on a roasting rack (for even cooking), and take it into the oven for about 2 hours for baby back ribs, or about 2 1/2 hours for spare ribs (a larger rack of ribs needs a longer cooking time).

Notes

  • Removal of the membrane is recommended if you want the ribs to easily fall off the bone, but it isn't a must. You can also just score the membrane, or leave it untouched. Refer to post for more information.
  • If you prefer not to use aluminum foil, you can use parchment paper instead.
  • Optionally, you can crisp up or char the ribs. After removing the foil, grill or broil the ribs for about 5 to 7 minutes at 240 °C (460 °F). Watch closely as it can burn fast.
