Ribs

Ingredients:
1 rack of pork baby back ribs
juice of one lemon
1/4 cup dry rub
1/2 cup BBQ sauce

Dry Rub:
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons sweet paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper

BBQ Sauce:
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 cup onion, finely diced
1 clove of garlic, minced
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons molasses
2 tablespoons spicy mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons chili powder

Directions:
Preheat oven to 300° F. Remove excess fat from ribs. Peel the silver skin off the back of the ribs – lift with a sharp knife and grab with a paper towel to remove. Cut ribs apart into individual pieces. Rub ribs all over with lemon juice. Coat ribs with dry rub. Place meat side down in large baking pan, & cover tightly with foil, shiny side out. Bake in the oven for 2 1/2 hours. Remove from oven & pour off liquid. Brush bbq sauce over all sides of ribs. To finish ribs, set oven to broil and return ribs to the same middle oven rack, uncovered, basting and broiling about 5 minutes per side, watching so they don’t burn. They will be so tender, it’s best to turn them using gloved hands. (If foil starts to burn, transfer ribs to a clean sheet of foil for broiling) Sauce:. Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat and sauté onion & garlic for 2 minutes until golden brown. Add everything else and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, for about 25 minutes. Sauce with thicken as it cools.
