BBQ Ribs

I made these over the Fourth 2011.

Rub:
2 TBs cumin
2 TBS brown sugar
1/4 cup paprika
2 tsps red pepper
2 TBs salt
2 TBs black pepper
1/2 tsp onion power
1/2 tsp garlic powder

2 racks St. Louis style ribs

Remove the skin on the back of the ribs.

Rub ribs on both sides and cover with plastic wrap. Marinate in refrigerator 2 to 8 hours or overnight. Remove ribs from frig 30 minutes to 1 hour before cooking.

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

Place ribs in shallow pan (I covered the pan with parchment paper for easier clean up). Cover with foil, making a tent so the foil does not touch the ribs. Bake for 1 hour.

Remove the foil. Bake 1 hour.

Cover the ribs with your favorite barbecue sauce. Bake for 1 to 1-1/2 hours more.

So the total cooking time is 3 to 3-1/2 hours.
