This recipe for slow-cooked baby-back ribs is incredibly simple to prepare. Although the baking process may take some time, the end result is well worth the wait, as with any rib dish. Additionally, this recipe is highly customizable, allowing the cook to tailor it to their specific preferences.
Technically, your ribs will be ready once it reaches an internal temperature of 145ºF (63ºC). This takes about 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 hours if you are working with your averaged sized baby back ribs.
The only variable really is the size and thickness of the ribs. Naturally, the larger the rack of ribs (and the thicker), the longer the cooking time will be.
I love serving slow-cooked ribs with either Russian Potato Salad or uber-crisp Roasted Potatoes. But, if you are looking for something fresher, try this Cucumber And Onion Salad instead.
