These Fall Off The Bone Ribs are a simple recipe that is baked low and slow in the oven creating a tender, juicy and flavorful bbq dinner.
So I’ve kinda been a little famous among our friends for my ribs. They always get super excited when we have game night or bonfires and they know that we are making these, they pretty much line right now and rush to my house because they literally are irresistible.
These ribs are baby back ribs that are coated in a dry rub then baked creating a juicy and tender meat. They are then lathered in a honey bbq sauce and broiled for about 5 minutes making sure that sauce is coated right to the meat. Now tell me that these Fall Off The Bone Ribs don’t sound amazing.
HOW LONG TO YOU BAKE RIBS IN THE OVEN?
For these particular ribs we used baby back and we cooked them at 300 degrees for 3 hours. If you’re looking at spare ribs you are looking at a little longer time.
These Fall Off The Bone Ribs go amazing with all sorts of side dishes. Potato salad, corn on the cob, salad, fresh fruit, macaroni and cheese. You really can’t go wrong when it comes to making something that pairs really well with these.
HOW TO MAKE A DRY RUB FOR BAKED RIBS:
We make our own dry rub for these ribs but if you have some that you like to use then by all means use it, but our rub consists of:
- Brown sugar
- Paprika
- Dry mustard
- Salt
- Pepper
- Garlic powder
- Onion powder
- Cumin
- Chili powder
Once they are done cooking you then slather then in some bbq sauce. We usually use a brown sugar bbq sauce then mix it with a little honey to make a honey bbq sauce and it really compliments the dry rub really well. To finish these off we sprinkle with a little parsley and go to town!
Once you try these Fall Off The Bone Ribs you’ll never want anything else, we haven’t gone back to any recipe besides this one and we don’t regret it one bit!

Do you need to adjust the cook time for 2 racks of baby back ribs?
Tornadough Alli
I have always cooked them the same amount with 2 racks.
Alyssa Llewellyn
Hi there!! I’m currently in the process of making these now but I’m using pork ribs instead of beef. How should I adjust the cooking time??
Tornadough Alli
I used pork ribs for this recipe so cooking times apply.
Mandy
I had never made ribs by myself before and needed a solid recipe. Have made these a few times now and they come out perfect every time!
Ashleigh Steffen
Hey there! Love the idea of this recipe, but does anyone know if it would work in a smoker instead at a lower temp for longer? Would it still get that “fall off the bone” texture?
Sabine
This recipe was delicious, my family loved it! I will definitely use this again. Thank you!
Margie Wass
These are the best ribs I’ve ever had. Moist and they do fall right off the bone. Just the right amount of heat.
Mine got done in 3 hours but an hour before dinner time so I put about half the sauce on, covered loosely and lowered oven temp to 200. I kept it warm that way for another hour. Then I spred the rest of the sauce on and served. Delicious. I had doubled the sauce recipe because it looked like there wouldn’t be enough.
Diego
Very good recipe and it is easy to follow. I did it as described several time. Now I put the ribs in the smoker and then the oven to get a smoked taste. 40 minutes to an hour on the smokers at high smoke (lowest setting).
Jennifer
This recipe is amazing!!!!! We have made these probably 10 times and never disappointed.
Arden
