Babyback Ribs with Sauce

These ribs are absolutely incredible. I'm putting the original recipe on here, but when we made them at Mom's house over Christmas, we toned down the cayenne. So if you are sensitive to spicy foods, then I would do the same, but I personally really like the heat that the cayenne gives these ribs. Either way is amazing though! These ribs do take a little time to cook, so plan on that when you are preparing this meal. Enjoy!


2 lbs. slab babyback ribs
Pepper
Salt
Cayenne

Cut racks into thirds. Sprinkle with spices and then wrap with foil. Place on cookie sheet and bake at 300° (convection) for 2 ½ hours.

Sauce:
In a saucepan, combine:
2 ¼ tablespoons oil
½ cup chopped onion

Cook for five minutes. In the same saucepan combine:

1 ½ cups water
1 can tomato paste
½ cup vinegar
½ cup brown sugar
2 ½ tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 ½ teaspoons liquid smoke
2 teaspoons garlic powder
¼ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon molasses
½ tablespoon cayenne

Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 1 ½ hours. Remove ribs from oven and let stand for 10 minutes. Remove from foil. Grill ribs for 3-4 minutes with sauce.
