Country Style Ribs

Preheat the oven to 275°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil.

In a small bowl whisk together chili powder, brown sugar, smoked paprika, cumin, oregano, salt, red pepper flakes, and black pepper.

Place the ribs on the prepared pan and rub all sides with the rub mixture. Cover tightly with foil. Cook for 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours. Open the foil and check the ribs with a fork: they should be tender. If they are still tough, cover and cook for an additional 30 minutes or until they are tender

Remove the pan from the oven and drain some of the juices if your ribs have a lot of juice. Generously brush the ribs with barbecue sauce.

Place the pan back into the oven and cook uncovered for an additional 45 to 60 minutes or until the ribs are very tender.

If desired, turn your oven on to broil and broil the ribs for 3 to 4 minutes or until lightly charred.
