Ingredients

  • Ribs (quantity as needed, without stuffing)
  • 3/8 cup (95 ml) ketchup
  • 1/3 cup (85 ml) barbecue sauce
  • 3 tablespoons chili sauce
  • 3/4 cup (190 ml) maple syrup
  • 4 tablespoons HP sauce
  • Paprika, salt, and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Boil the Ribs: Start by boiling the ribs for about one hour. This crucial step ensures that the ribs become tender and flavorful, setting the stage for perfectly cooked meat that easily falls off the bone.
  2. Prepare the Oven and Sauce: Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). While the oven is heating, mix ketchup, barbecue sauce, chili sauce, maple syrup, and HP sauce in a bowl. Add paprika, salt, and pepper to your liking. This sauce will give the ribs a rich, tangy, and sweet flavor.
  3. Sauce the Ribs: After boiling, drain the ribs and pat them dry. Place them on a baking tray and generously brush them with the prepared sauce. Make sure to coat them well for maximum flavor.
  4. Bake the Ribs: Bake the ribs in the preheated oven for about 40 minutes on each side. This slow cooking process allows the flavors to deepen and the meat to become incredibly tender.
  5. Baste Frequently: Throughout the baking process, baste the ribs frequently with the sauce. This not only adds more flavor but also ensures the ribs stay moist and succulent.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Once the ribs are beautifully caramelized and tender, remove them from the oven. Let them rest for a few minutes before serving. These oven-baked ribs are best enjoyed hot, with extra sauce on the side and your favorite sides like coleslaw or roasted vegetables
