Instructions
1
|
Preheat the oven to 250°F.
2
|
Position a roasting rack inside a large roasting pan. Pour the chicken broth into the pan. Set aside.
3
|
Season the pork ribs liberally with salt and black pepper on both sides.
4
|
In a small bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, paprika, ground mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and cayenne pepper.
5
|
Using a spoon and clean hands, pat the sugar and spice rub evenly onto both sides of the pork ribs.
6
|
Place the ribs meat side up on the roasting rack. Cover the pan entirely with a large sheet of aluminum foil. Crimp the foil tightly around the edges of the pan so that no steam can escape.
7
|
Roast the ribs on middle rack of oven until they reach an internal temperature of about 180°F and are very tender, 2 1/2-3 hours.
8
|
Remove the roasting pan from the oven.
9
|
Very carefully remove the foil from the pan. Spread the barbecue sauce evenly over the top of the ribs.
10
|
Set the oven to broil. Broil the ribs on the top rack of oven until the barbecue sauce starts to caramelize, 4-5 minutes. Keep a close eye on the ribs to ensure they do not burn.
11
|
Check to see that ribs are done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.
12
|
Allow the ribs to cool for 3-4 minutes on the roasting rack, then transfer to a cutting board. With a sharp knife, cut the ribs into desired portions, and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh rosemary if you like.
