Baby Back Rib Rub with basting sauce?

Looking for a baby back rib recipe that incorporates a rub and basting sauce for use in the oven

16 minutes and still no answer? That’s just not right.

I do hope you get other responses. Because I’m just not a fan of dry rubs. Dry rubs are salt based, and salt is a desiccant. It sucks moisture from anything it comes into contact with. so the ribs will come out dry and chewy. Try St. Louis ribs and natural ribs. St. Louis are dry rubbed, and will be dry. Naturals are moist and tender.

I also don’t like ribs that have been basted with BBQ sauce. BBQ sauce has sugar in it, and sugar will burn over open flame/heat.

Try a marinade. The best marinades use 2 basic ingredients, oil and acid. Take a LITTLE wine or vinegar or citrus juice. Add a little cooking oil. (Acid breaks down and tenderizes the meat. Oil conditions the meat.) Add whatever you like. Diced onion, crushed garlic, salt and pepper, fresh rosemary is a natural with baby backs, etc. Marinate the ribs for a couple of hours, then pat dry. Barbecue, and serve with heated BBQ sauce.
