Matt Horn’s Oven Barbecue Ribs
“This is a really great recipe that you can prepare in the comfort of your home. Once the meat has been baked, I like to add a sauce to the ribs; this can be either homemade or your favorite store-bought BBQ sauce. For really tender ribs, you can remove the membrane from behind the rack of ribs,” says pitmaster Matt Horn, of Horn Barbecue.
How to Make It
1
Make homemade rub by mixing together equal parts Kosher salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
2
Make the sweet barbecue sauce by mixing together the ketchup, brown sugar, soy sauce, and rub to taste.
3
Heat oven to 375 degrees.
4
Season both sides of the ribs with a generous amount of rub. You can use olive oil or mustard as a binder.
5
Once both sides of the ribs have been seasoned, place in a pan and cover with foil.
6
Bake the ribs for 3 hours and then pull from the oven. Once the ribs have been pulled from the oven, sauce them. Place the covered ribs back into the oven for 15 minutes.
7
After the ribs have been pulled from the oven again, let them rest on the counter until they are at a safe temperature to cut into. Enjoy!
