  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup favorite BBQ sauce

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 500°F.

  2. 2

    Season ribs with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Pour about ½ inch of water in the lower portion of a 2-piece broiling pan. Place upper rack in position.

  4. 4

    Lay ribs side-by-side on the rack without overlapping.

  5. 5

    Form a tent of extra-heavy-duty foil over the ribs, sealing tightly around all edges of the pan to trap steam.

  6. 6

    Bake at 500°F for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 325°F and continue baking for 1½ to 2 hours until very tender.

  7. 7

    Uncover, brush with BBQ sauce, and broil a few minutes to caramelize. Let rest 5 minutes before slicing.
