Easy Oven Baked Ribs | September 18, 2023

This amazing 3-ingredient recipe for Easy Baby Back Ribs in the Oven is my favorite. I am desperately in love with this recipe. Ribs do not have to be complicated and this recipe is a perfect example of that. No matter the time of year, you can pull fall off the bone, tender ribs right from your oven. Pair with some Crockpot Mashed Potatoes and a Pea Salad and you have an amazing dinner for any night of the week.

3 Main Ingredients
Can you believe it? With three ingredients and an oven later, you’ll have delicious ribs to devour. Here’s everything you’ll need to make baby back ribs in the oven:

Baby Back Ribs – Pork ribs to be exact! One whole rack of them! If you love tender, delectable meat, this is a recipe for you.
Grill Seasoning – I used McCormick Smokehouse Maple Seasoning but you can use your favorite grill seasoning! Just make sure it’s on the sweet side.
BBQ Sauce – Once again I used Stubbs Original BBQ Sauce but feel free to use your personal favorite. My only suggestion is to make sure the seasoning and sauce complement each other in flavor. If you have some extra time, try my homemade BBQ Sauce!

If you’re looking for more easy main dishes to drool over, here are some: One Month of Crockpot Meals, Parmesan Garlic Linguine Pasta, The Best Turkey Burger Recipe, and Baked Chicken Legs.

What Else You’ll Need
Now because we are making baby back ribs in the oven, you’ll need a different yet familiar set of supplies as opposed to grillings ribs.

Baking Sheet – you’re going to want a baking sheet that is large enough to support the whole rack of ribs.
Basting Brush – I used a silicone brush but if you prefer a natural bristled brush feel free to use that too. I feel as though the silicon brush carries the sauce better without soaking it all up.
Aluminum Foil – this is for easy cleanup and to tent your ribs.
