Description

These Baked Boneless Pork Ribs are Southern style and slow cooked in the oven until tender and pull apart. Pair this BBQ sauce lathered pork with all the Country sides and get ready for some serious comfort food!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3-4 lbs of Country Style Boneless Pork Ribs
  • 3/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 6 ounce pineapple juice
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce
  • 1 cup original, thick bbq sauce
  • You also need a spray bottle and rimmed cookie sheet


Instructions

  1. Place the boneless pork ribs on a cutting board and pat dry with a paper towel. Slice the ribs in half into two shorter pieces. Season all sides with salt. Blend together the garlic powder, onion powder and paprika and sprinkle spices on all sides. Allow the pork ribs to sit out at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
  2. Prepare a spray bottom with pineapple juice and hot sauce and give it a good shake.
  3. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and spread the pork ribs out on the tray. Spray the tops of the ribs with the pineapple spritz. Note: A lot of juice from the pork will drip in the bottom of the cookie sheet, so it's very important to use a rimmed baking trayThis way it won't leak into the oven.
  4. Cover the baking tray very tightly with tin foil. I use two pieces of foil and tuck them under the rim. Bake for 45 minutes.
  5. Uncover the foil, flip and spritz again. Cover tightly with foil and bake for one hour.
  6. Pour the juices out of the cookie sheet. Lather the bbq sauce onto the ribs and bake for another 30 minutes covered. Remove the tin foil cover and bake for another 15 minutes.
  7. Allow them to cool for a few minutes, then serve. Note: They will be really tender and fall apart super easy. 

Notes

  • Allow the pork to sit out with the seasonings at room temperature for about 30 minutes. This results in a more tender meat that's juicier.
  • Wrap the foil tightly around the tray so it can really lock the steam inside of the baking tray.
  • Be careful when removing the pork ribs from the oven because a lot of juices are in the bottom of the tray when baking.
