Ingredients
2racksuncooked ribs, Baby Back or St. Louis both work well
1bottleSweet Baby Rays Honey BBQ Sauce (or your own favorite kind, bottled or homemade), 18 ounce
1-2TBliquid smoke
Instructions
Dry the racks of ribs with paper towels. Using a sharp knife, make a slit down the middle of the rib membranes (thin layer of skin on bottom sides.) Carefully pull and remove the membranes.
In a bowl, combine all dry rub ingredients and whisk to combine well. Pat and press dry rub onto both sides of rib racks. Tightly wrap each rack of ribs in foil, individually. Place in a single layer on a large baking sheet and let sit in fridge overnight.
Preheat oven to 300F. Bake foil-wrapped ribs, on baking sheet, for 2 hours.
Remove ribs, let cool enough to handle, and remove foil. Discard juices. Brush ribs generously with desired amount of BBQ sauce mixed with desired amount of liquid smoke. Broil for 5 minutes or just until tops are nicely browned. Watch carefully. (Alternatively, you can grill for 5-10 minutes per side, in lieu of broiling.)
