Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 rack baby back ribs
  • 3–4 tablespoons balsamic glaze
  • 2 large sweet or yellow onions, cut into thin rings
  • 1/3 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon flaky sea salt or Kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly cracked black peppercorns
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and arrange the sliced onions down the center to create a flavorful bed for the ribs.
  3. Combine the dry rib rub ingredients: light brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, flaky sea salt, black pepper, and ground cinnamon in a small bowl.
  4. Rinse and pat dry the baby back ribs thoroughly.
  5. Brush the ribs with balsamic glaze, coating them evenly.
  6. Lay the seasoned side of the ribs onto the sliced onions and rub the remaining rib rub onto the top of the ribs.
  7. Place the ribs in the preheated oven on the center rack and cook for 2 ½ hours.
  8. Brush the ribs with homemade or store-bought strawberry simple syrup and return them to the oven for an additional 30 minutes.
  9. Remove the ribs from the oven and brush with strawberry barbecue sauce.
  10. Allow the ribs to rest for 15 minutes before serving.
  11. Serve with additional strawberry barbecue sauce on the side.

Notes

For extra tenderness, consider marinating the ribs in dry rub overnight. Broil for a few minutes after baking for a crispy finish.
