Kailey’s Barbecued Ribs

Posted on by Angela Mentink

These ribs are great to throw on the grill for a delicious summer barbecue, or just to throw in the oven for an easy supper!

Kailey’s Barbecued Ribs

4 lb. pork ribs

5 cloves garlic

1 tbsp. sugar (I use sucanat, and honey works okay)

1 tbsp. paprika

2 tsp. each salt, pepper, chili powder, and cumin

Dash of chipotle chili powder or cayenne

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 300˚.

Mix minced garlic, sugar, paprika, and seasonings in a small bowl.

Prepare ribs by trimming excess fat (but leave a little on!) and placing them on a pan.

Rub garlic mix into the ribs and bake for 2 hours.

Add barbecue sauce after baking, or brush some on and throw them on the grill for a few minutes! And that’s it!
