How to Make Guy S Righteous Ribs
- Preheat oven to 275°F (135°C).
- Trim excess fat and sinew from the country-style ribs.
- Remove the thin membrane from the back of the ribs using a butter knife or your fingers and discard.
- In a mixing bowl, prepare the dry rub by combining: 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 2 tablespoons salt, 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, 1 tablespoon onion powder, 1 tablespoon paprika, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon white pepper, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves.
- Prepare large sheets of heavy-duty foil (one for each rack of ribs).
- Place one rack of ribs on each sheet of foil.
- Divide the dry rub evenly between the racks of ribs, generously rubbing it into both sides of the meat.
- Fold the foil over to create a sealed pouch around each rack of ribs, ensuring the meat side is down.
- Place the foil pouches on a roasting tray and bake in the preheated oven for 2 hours.
- After 2 hours, carefully open the foil pouches, leaving the ribs exposed.
- Turn the ribs over so the meat side is facing up.
- Generously brush the top and bottom of the ribs with your favorite root beer BBQ sauce (or your preferred BBQ sauce).
- Continue cooking for 1 1/2 hours with the foil open, basting occasionally with the sauce.
- The ribs are done when they are tender, and the meat has shrunk back slightly from the bones.
- Remove from the oven, let rest for 5-10 minutes, then cut into portions and serve with extra BBQ sauce.
