I always feel hesitated to make ribs at home as it is kind of intimidating to handle such a big chunk of meat. Plus most of the ribs I order in restaurant are overcooked and dry.

My worries ward off after trying this simple recipe, where the ribs were wrapped in foil and then slow- braised to contain heat and moisture, finished with a cooked-on glaze in the end. It only took a few ingredients but the result was… absolutely fall-off-the-bone tender!

Who said you had to slave away in the kitchen to be a domestic goddess?

Let the oven do all the dirty work and spend your time on something more important… (like online shopping!)

Ingredients (serving for 2):

• 2 lbs pork ribs
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon paprika
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 2 cups of your favorite premade barbecue sauce

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 150 degrees c.
2. Mix together the sugar and spices to make the dry rub.
3. Generously apply dry rub to ribs on all sides.
4. Lay ribs on the foil, roll and seal edges tightly
5. Bake for 3 hours until meat is starting to shrink away from the bone.
6. Remove from oven.
7. Brush on sauce on all sides.
8. Return ribs to the oven and bake uncovered (meat side up) at 180 deg for another 15-  20 min or until there is bubbling of the sauce.
