Wrap the ribs in foil.
Note: If you want the meat to absorb more flavor from the seasoning you can season the ribs the night before you cook them. Simply coat each side in the seasoning then place in the refrigerator overnight.
Baking Ribs in the Oven
Set the foil-wrapped ribs in the oven at 275 degrees for about 2 ½ to 3 ½ hours or until the ribs are cooked through and the meat is tender.
