Ingredients
  

  • 2 racks pork baby back ribs Silver skin membrane removed
  • ¼ cup dark brown sugar Packed firmly
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika For outdoor wood-fired flavor
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper Freshly ground
  • 1 cup barbecue sauce Plus more for serving

Equipment

  • 1 Heavy-duty aluminum foil For wrapping ribs
  • 1 rimmed baking sheet To catch any leaks

  3. Place the seasoned racks on large sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil and seal tightly to create airtight pouches. Bake on a rimmed baking sheet for 2.5 hours until the meat is very tender.
