At What Temperature Do Ribs Fall Off The Bone?

Ribs can be cooked in a variety of ways. With that being said, I recommend cooking the ribs at 400 degrees for two hours, or 300 degrees for 3 hours so that the ribs can fall off the bone.

Be mindful that the higher the temperature, the greater the chances that the ribs will come out dry if cooked for too long.

Furthermore, if the temperature is too high, then the outside will cook while the inside of the ribs will be raw.

What Is The Difference Between Baby Back And Spare Ribs?

Making The Tasty Hawaiian Ribs Baby Back Style BBQ Recipe

Serving Size: 12-16 (depending on the size of the ribs)

  • Ribs
    • A Slab Baby Back Rib
    • 1/2 Cup of Pineapple Juice
    • 1 Tsp of Cayenne Pepper
    • 1/4 Cup of Soy Sauce
    • 1 Tsp of Lemon Pepper
    • 1/2 Tsp of Black Pepper
    • 1/8 Cup of Coconut Sugar
    • 1/2 Tsp of Salt
    • ½ Tsp of Garlic Powder
    • 1 Tsp of Paprika
  • BBQ Sauce (Option)
  • Equipment
    • Mixing Bowl
    • Cookie Sheet
    • Spoon
    • Aluminum Foil
    • Oven

Preparing The Tasty Hawaiian Ribs

Put the slab of ribs in a mixing bowl and add the pineapple juice and soy sauce. Next, add the dry ingredient to the mixing bowl and rub the ingredient into the ribs.

After you rub the ingredient into the ribs, you can let the ribs marinate overnight. This is an option and is not necessary if you don’t have the patience.

Wrap the ribs with aluminum foil and make sure that the ribs are covered. Covering the ribs is essential for helping the ribs fall off the bone.

Putting The Baby Back Style BBQ Ribs In The Oven

With this low and slow BBQ method of cooking ribs, the oven will need to be preheated to either 300 or 400 degrees.

When the preheating process is done, put the baby-back style BBQ ribs in the oven and let them cook.

At 300 degrees, the cooking time is 3 hours. 400 degrees, the cooking time is 2 hours. From my experience, the results are about the same, so I recommend cooking the ribs at 400 degrees.

The Option Of Adding BBQ Sauce

Once the ribs are ready, you have the option to add barbecue sauce to the ribs. It is recommended to use the tropical Hawaiian BBQ sauce recipe if you are using BBQ sauce.

Spread the barbecue sauce over the ribs using a spoon or any other kitchen utensil and broil the ribs at a low temperature for 20 minutes.

After the 20 minutes is over, remove the Hawaiian ribs from the oven. The Tasty Hawaiian Ribs Baby Back Style BBQ will be hot so let them cool off for 10 minutes.
