Ingredients
3 pounds St. Louis style pork ribs (about 1 large rack, trimmed & cut*)
1 Tablespoon salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
1 Tablespoon granulated garlic
1 Tablespoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
3/4 cup barbecue sauce*
4 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 Tablespoons honey
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 275 degrees. In a small bowl, combine the salt, pepper, garlic, paprika, cumin, onion powder, and chili powder. Rub the ribs with all of the dry rub, focusing on the meat side.
Wrap each piece of the rack of ribs by itself tightly with foil so they are completely covered. Place these in a large pan lined with foil.
Bake for 2 hours. While the ribs bake, combine the vinegar and honey. Set aside. Lift the foil gently just to expose the top of the ribs. Spoon or brush about half of the vinegar mixture on the ribs.
Rewrap and bake for another 2 hours. Lastly, unwrap the ribs and preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Brush them with the remaining vinegar mixture.
Next, brush them with the barbecue sauce. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes.
Broil on high for 5-10 minutes, or until the sauce bubbles and dark spots begin to form.Serve with more sauce or pan drippings.
