Ingredients
  

  • 2 racks of ribs about 3-4 pounds
  • 1 onion thinly sliced
  • 6 cloves garlic thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 300°F.
  • Rinse the ribs under cool water to remove any bone fragments, then pat dry with paper towels.
  • Remove the silver skin from the back of the ribs if needed.
  • Mix the garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle evenly over the ribs.
  • Cut the ribs into 2-3 bone sections and place them meaty side down in a large baking dish with a lid (or use foil to cover).
  • Spread the sliced garlic and onion over the ribs.
  • Cover the dish with foil or the lid and bake at 300°F for about 2 hours, until the ribs are tender and the meat is slightly pulling away from the bones.
  • Drizzle some of the cooking liquid over the ribs and serve with the onions and garlic on top.

Notes

Chef Jenn’s Tips

  • To remove the silver skin, use a sharp paring knife to cut a small section, then grip it with a paper towel and pull it off.
  • If making a smaller portion, simply halve the ingredients.
  • Cooking ribs meaty side down in their juices keeps them tender and flavorful.
  • For a crispy finish, broil the ribs for a few minutes after baking, but watch closely to prevent burning.
  • Let the ribs rest in the covered dish for 10-15 minutes after baking to allow the juices to redistribute.
