Feel free to make your own additions.

Boil the Ribs
Bring ribs, spices, and water to a boil and cook until ribs are tender.

Bake
Bake the ribs, covered, until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F.

When To Put Barbecue Sauce on Ribs
We like the method this recipe uses, which is to put the barbecue sauce on the ribs after they're boiled — but before they go in the oven. This will allow the ribs to get all the barbecue flavor while the sauce bakes into the ribs.

If you want, you can serve these BBQ ribs with an extra side of barbecue sauce for dipping.

How to Store BBQ Ribs
Store BBQ ribs in an airtight container or zip-top bag for up to four days in the refrigerator. Reheat in the oven or microwave — you may want to add extra barbecue sauce to the ribs to keep them from drying out.

Can You Freeze BBQ Ribs?
Yes, you can freeze BBQ ribs. Wrap ribs in a layer of storage wrap, then a layer of foil, and store them in a zip-top freezer bag. Freeze for up to three months. Thaw in the fridge overnight. Reheat in the oven. You may want to add extra sauce to the ribs to keep them moist.

"I've never ever made ribs before in my life. They turned out amazing!!! Family loved them! Followed the recipe exactly. I will be making these again," says Kim.

"Great method to make country ribs in the oven. Followed the recipe except added 1 tbs of onion powder & boiled ribs for 45 minutes. I also added more bbq sauce towards the end of cooking. My family gobbled this up and said it was the best ribs ever! Meat fell off the bone, which is a plus," according to Elizabeth Fontanez.
