Easy, Fall-Off-The-Bone Oven Baked Ribs

This recipe is for 3 racks of ribs (which feeds a family of 8 for dinner with some leftovers)

Ingredients
3 racks of ribs
salt & pepper
BBQ Sauce


Directions
Heat the oven to 275 degrees. If the ribs still have the thin membrane covering the back of the rack, remove it by using a knife and gently slide it under the membrane and then using your fingers, pull the membrane away from the bones. Cut the three racks of ribs each in half to make six halves. Using two large jellyroll pans (cookie sheets that are 18x12 with 1 inch sides) place three rib racks on each pan. Season both sides of the ribs with salt and generous amount of pepper. Leave the ribs meat-side up and then tightly cover the pans with aluminum foil.

Bake for 4 hours, until the meat easily falls off of the bones.

Remove the ribs from the oven, discard the aluminum foil, generously brush both sides of the ribs with your choice of BBQ sauce. Turn broiler to high and broil the ribs for 3-4 minutes, just until the BBQ sauce begins to caramelize.
