How to Make Kittencal's Best And Easiest Baby Back Ribs
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce (Sweet Baby Ray's recommended) and 1/4 cup honey until well combined.
- Generously brush both sides of the ribs with the honey BBQ sauce, reserving about 1/4 cup for later.
- Tear off 2 large sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil, large enough to completely wrap each rack of ribs.
- Spray each sheet of foil with non-stick cooking spray.
- Place each rack of ribs onto a greased sheet of foil. Wrap tightly, ensuring no sauce leaks out.
- Refrigerate for 8-24 hours to allow the ribs to fully marinate.
- Place wrapped ribs in the preheated oven and bake for 2 1/2 hours.
- Carefully open the foil, ensuring steam escapes, and baste the ribs generously with the reserved sauce.
- Bake for an additional 20-30 minutes uncovered, basting occasionally, until the ribs are tender and the sauce is caramelized.
- (Optional) For extra smoky flavor and crispiness, broil for 7 minutes per side, watching carefully to prevent burning.
