Bake the Ribs: Place the ribs on a baking sheet lined with foil. Cover them with another layer of foil and bake for 2.5 to 3 hours, until tender.
Add Barbecue Sauce: Remove the top layer of foil, brush the ribs with barbecue sauce, and bake uncovered for an additional 30 minutes.
Serve: Let the ribs rest for a few minutes before cutting. Serve with extra barbecue sauce on the side.
