Steps:
- Take ribs out of package and rinse off with cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Take a fork and remove the thin membrane off of the back of the ribs. (Sometimes this is not easy to do and its okay to leave it on).
- Take each rack of ribs and cut them into thirds or fourths sections. Place ribs on shallow sided pan or a cookie sheet with sides. ( I foil line the pan for easy clean up ) Season with the pepper and garlic powder to taste and let ribs sit at room temperature for about 1/2 hour or so.
- Pre heat oven to 350. Take about 3 or 4 tablespoons of apple cider vineger and pour it into the pan of ribs (NOT ON THE RIBS THEMSELVES). Cover the ribs with foil and place in the oven. Cook ribs for about 1 hour or until the meat is just starting to pull away from the bone.
- Pull ribs from oven, remove from pan and brush on BBQ sauce. (I use Cattlemens Classic Brand) Place ribs on pre heated BBQ grill and grill on medium heat turning often and brushing with BBQ sauce after each time you turn them. Grill them until ribs are fully done.

Tips:
- Choose the right ribs: Baby back ribs are the most popular type of ribs for this recipe, but you can also use spare ribs or St. Louis-style ribs.
- Trim the ribs: Remove any excess fat or membrane from the ribs before cooking.
- Season the ribs: Rub the ribs with a mixture of spices, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
- Slow-cook the ribs: The best way to cook baby back ribs is to slow-cook them in a smoker or oven. This will help the ribs to become tender and fall off the bone.
- Baste the ribs: During the cooking process, baste the ribs with a mixture of barbecue sauce, apple cider vinegar, and honey. This will help to keep the ribs moist and flavorful.
- Let the ribs rest: Once the ribs are cooked, let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the ribs to retain their juices.
Conclusion:
Tender baby back ribs are a delicious and satisfying dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can make sure that your ribs turn out perfectly every time. Serve the ribs with your favorite sides, such as coleslaw, potato salad, or baked beans.
