Mom’s Oven Baked Pork Rib Recipe:

Like the name states, this is our mom’s go-to pork spareribs recipe.  In the original recipe, these are called barbecued spareribs.  What’s unique about this particular recipe is that the ribs are parboiled which cuts down the baking time considerably.

What does it mean to parboil?  It’s a cooking method that uses gently boiling water to partially cook the food.  In the case of pork spareribs, it will tenderize the meat and pull out (render) some of the fat.  Parboiling will also significantly reduce the baking time. This recipe is a fast way to make pork ribs.

The sauce for these quick baked pork ribs is finger-licking, and simple.  It’s made with ketchup, water, vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and yellow mustard.

Notes About Easy Baked Pork Ribs:

  • What is a pork spare rib? This cut of meat is also known as a St. Louis style rib.  They tend to be smaller in size than a baby back rib.  The ribs have meat in between each bone, and on the top of the bone.
  • Mom’s Oven Baked Pork Ribs include a parboil step. What is parboiling?  It is when you partially cook a food in gently boiling water.  Don’t use a hard boil or you could toughen the meat.
  • Be sure to bake uncovered.  This allows the ribs to get a nice brown color.  You’ll want to watch the ribs so they don’t get too dark.
  • I recommend basting the ribs several times.  What is basting? It means to pour the juices over the meat during backing to keep it moist and flavorful.  I like to turn my barbecued pork ribs over half way through cooking so that the other side gets browned too.
  • If you desire a sticky barbecued pork rib, right before serving, remove the ribs from the sauce and broil for a couple extra minutes.
  • The sauce is finger-licking good.  Don’t waste it!  Serve the oven barbecued pork ribs over rice.  It will absorb the yummy flavors.
