Oven-Baked Baby Back Ribs

I just brought these Honey-Glazed Baby Back Ribs out of the oven, and my kitchen smells delicious! Ideal for a relaxing night in.

Ingredients

– 3 pounds baby back ribs (2 slabs)

– 1 medium white onion (sliced)

– Sweet BBQ Rub:

– 2 tbsp brown sugar

– 1 tbsp paprika

– 1 tsp ground black pepper

– 1 tsp garlic powder

– 1 tsp onion powder

– 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional for heat)

– Glaze:

– 1/2 cup honey

– 1/4 cup soy sauce

– 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar

– 1 tbsp olive oil

– 2 cloves garlic, minced

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C). Place ribs on a large baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.

2. Mix all the ingredients for the Sweet BBQ Rub in a bowl. Rub generously onto both sides of the ribs.

3. Place sliced onions on top of the ribs. Cover tightly with another piece of foil and bake for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until ribs are tender.

4. While the ribs are baking, mix all the ingredients for the glaze in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until the mixture reduces by half, about 15 minutes.

5. Remove ribs from oven and increase oven temperature to 450°F (230°C). Remove the top piece of foil and brush the ribs with the glaze.

6. Return to the oven uncovered, and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the glaze is caramelized.

7. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
