A delightful twist on classic BBQ ribs, featuring a tangy orange-infused sauce.
Preheat your oven to 300°F.
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
Place the ribs in a baking dish and arrange sliced onions on top.
Ensure the ribs are evenly spaced for consistent cooking.
In a bowl, whisk together the barbecue sauce and orange juice until well combined.
Mix thoroughly to blend the flavors evenly.
Pour the sauce mixture over the ribs and onions, ensuring they are well coated.
Use a spoon to spread the sauce evenly if needed.
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 3 hours.
Sealing the dish traps moisture, keeping the ribs tender.
Remove the foil, increase the oven temperature to 350°F, and bake for an additional hour, turning the ribs halfway through.
Turning the ribs ensures even caramelization.
Transfer the ribs to a serving platter and let them rest for 15 minutes.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, enhancing flavor.
Skim off any fat from the sauce in the baking dish and serve it alongside the ribs.
A fat separator can make this step easier.
Serve the ribs warm and enjoy your meal!
Garnish with fresh herbs for a pop of color and flavor.
