I make a dry rub: Paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, dried thyme, dried rosemary, dried sage, ground black pepper and some cinnamon, allspice, cumin and cayenne powder. Next I rub half of that dry rub all over the raw ribs. Reserving the remaining half for later.
I put the ribs in a baking dish. Cover with aluminum foil and throw in the oven at 325 degrees for about 1 1/2 hours or until the ribs are tender when pierced with a fork. Remove the cover and let it bake another 30 minutes. Then I make a "mopping" sauce made from equal parts lemon juice (or vinegar) and water. Dab this mopping sauce all over the ribs. Sprinkle with half of the reserved rub. Throw it back into the oven for another 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and mop it again with the mopping sauce and sprinkle the rest of the rub on it. Pull it out of the oven, cool for 15 minutes, slice and serve.
Pau, I am so glad to see you back, I love every recipe that you have posted both here and on the sister board. Both recipes sound wonderful. I may be making ribs next week. Great thread.

Forgot to add, my rib method is a variation of Memphis-style ribs. Those ribs are smoked, which I can't do in my oven. And they mop the ribs with the mopping sauce a few times during the cooking (which is just too, too much work for me...)
Oh yeah, you won't need to use a sauce with those ribs either, because the mopping sauce and dry rub create a 'sauce coat' on the ribs.
I do mine similar to the way not2late does hers. Except I never thought of adding cumin! And, I put a small amount of water in the bottom of the pan and bake them at around 300 for 3-4 hours, then I take them out and put them in the refridgerator, when they are good and cold we put them on the grill with sugar free bbq sauce to reheat them. Chilling them helps keep them from falling apart on the grill because they are so tender!
Man, now I want ribs for dinner!
