Description
These Keto Barbecue Dry Rub Ribs are incredibly juicy and fall-apart tender. They are seasoned with a homemade barbecue dry rub mix, and then baked to perfection.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds pork baby back ribs (I get my meat here)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 batch Barbecue Dry Rub (get the recipe here)
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 300°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
2. Remove the thin membrane from the back, or concave side, of the ribs. Start by slicing into the membrane with a sharp knife, then pull the skin away from the ribs. Place the ribs on the lined baking sheet.
3. Brush the olive oil evenly over the ribs. Pour the dry rub over the ribs and work it evenly onto both sides.
4. Bake until the ribs are tender and juicy on the inside and nice and crispy on the outside, about 2 ½ hours. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

If you have time would you suggest putting the dry rub on the day before?

These ribs were awesome!
They were delicious, so tender and juicy, easy to prepare, and I had every ingredient I needed in my pantry to fix them.
My dinner guest and I really enjoyed them!

Hi there! Just found your blog. I want to make these ribs tonight. Are they covered during cooking time, or left uncovered?
Thanks in advance.

Heather says
I've made this recipe a total of 4 times and every time was excellent. They come out so juicy and flavorful. I will never make ribs any other way. It's 25 degrees here in Ohio but these ribs don't need a grill so we can eat them whenever we want. Thanks Kyndra for another phenomenal recipe and method!!

These are amazing! Thank you Kyndra.. You are so correct--easy. The hardest part is getting the membrane off the underside. I also get ButcherBox.
