Fall Off The Bone Ribs
- ¾ cup light brown sugar
- 1-½ teaspoon smoked or regular salt

Dry rub on ribs

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. In a small bowl, mix together the dry ingredients for the rub. Set aside. Cover a large baking sheet in two layers of aluminum tin foil. Allow extra foil on the sides. Peel off the tough membrane on the bony side of the rib slabs. Apply the rub on all sides and place slabs of ribs (meaty side down) on the baking sheet. Cover ribs with two more layers of aluminum tin foil, crimping the sides up to seal. Place in the oven middle rack for 2 to 2 ½ hours or until the meat begins to shrink and separate from the bone. Remove ribs once the meat begins to shrink and separate from the bone. Before applying barbecue sauce, cut the ribs into sections of 2-3 ribs. This will make it easier to serve. Heat oven broiler. While the oven is heating, brush ribs with barbecue sauce. Place ribs in the oven, bony side up first and broil 1 to 2 minutes until the sauce is bubbly. Flip and repeat. Allow ribs to cool slightly (5 to 7 minutes). Serve with your favorite barbecue sides.
