Memphis Dry-Rub Ribs

Mmmmm mmm. These were GOOD! Something so simple, yet fall off the bone yummy.

Recipe:

2 racks baby back ribs

2 teaspoons salt

2 teaspoons light brown sugar

2 teaspoons paprika

1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder

1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder

1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin

1 teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Place the ribs in a large roasting pan. In a small bowl, combine all the ingredients to make the spice rub. Rub the spice mixture all over the ribs. Get in there real good and make sure you don't miss any spots. Wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or even overnight. 

By oven: Heat oven to 325 degrees and pour a few tablespoons of water into the bottom of the pan. Cover the pan and cook until the ribs are very tender, about 2 1/2 hours.

By grill: Adjust heat to low, indirect grillilng. Place the ribs in and cook, turning occasionally, until they are tender, about 3 to 3 1/2 hours long.
