PRESENTATION

The oven-baked pork ribs are a succulent and flavorful main course. The secret of this recipe is the spice mix, which adheres to the meat thanks to a layer of mustard and brings a complexity of flavors, balancing sweetness, spiciness, and aromatic notes. After a long marinade, which allows the spices to flavor the meat, the pork ribs are cooked at a low temperature: this way the meat becomes tender and succulent. As a final touch, a brushing of ketchup, and the ribs are put back in the oven so that the ketchup can caramelize and create an irresistible crust. The oven-baked pork ribs are ideal for a family dinner or evenings with friends.

Preparation

How to prepare Oven-baked pork ribs

To prepare the oven-baked pork ribs, first put in a mortar: brown sugar, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, mustard seeds, and cinnamon 1. Grind 2 until you obtain a fine and homogeneous powder 3. Alternatively, you can blend everything in a mixer.

Remove the excess fat from the ribs 4, then brush one side with mustard 5. At this point, spread the spice mix evenly over the entire surface 6. Thanks to the mustard, this will adhere better to the meat. Repeat the same procedure for the other side of the ribs. Let marinate in the refrigerator for 8-12 hours. After the time has elapsed, cook in a fan oven at 250°F for 150 minutes.

Remove from the oven and brush with ketchup 7, making sure to completely cover both sides 8. Then put the ribs back in the oven for another 30 minutes using the same method as before. Remove from the oven and let the meat rest for 10 minutes. The oven-baked pork ribs are ready to be enjoyed 9!

Storage

The oven-baked pork ribs can be stored in the refrigerator, in a closed container, for 2-3 days. If you want to store them for a longer period, you can freeze them, whole or divided, in freezer bags.
