Description

Ingredients

• 3 lbs meaty beef ribs
• Liquid smoke (optional)
• 2-4 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 tablespoon cajun seasoning
• 2 tablespoon brown sugar, packed
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon salt, can used a smoked salt as well. (I used 1½ teaspoons because we kinda like our ribs a tad salty)
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 2 teaspoons oregano
• Favorite BBQ Sauce (I only used a few tablespoons of Sweet Baby Rays)

Directions

• Rinse ribs and dry COMPLETELY with paper towels.
• Douse dry ribs with liquid smoke if using.
• Lightly coat ribs in olive oil.
• Mix together seasoning and sprinkle generously over ribs, front and back. (dont have to use all of seasoning mix)
• Massage the spices into the ribs, adding more olive oil to help distribute the spices well if needed.
• Place the ribs in a large ziplock bag or covered bowl and marinate in the fridge for 1-2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 250 F.
• Place the ribs on a foil lined baking tray in a single layer.
• Add another piece of foil on top to create a pouch for the ribs to cook in. Be sure to seal the edges of the foil so that its tight and steam wont seep out.
• Bake on the middle rack of 3½ -4 hours. (Mine only needed 3½ hours) Check on it after the 3½ hour mark. The oven temperature is very low so you can afford to cook it a bit longer without worry)
• When the ribs are done to your liking, drain off the excess fat.
• Brush the ribs with desired amount of BBQ sauce.
• Broil on low until the sauce is sticky. (this wont take long so keep an eye on it)
• Serve hot and enjoy!!
