  3. Place ribs on the Grill Pan in a single layer. Pour apple cider underneath the ribs, cover with foil, and bake for 90 minutes or until the meat is tender.

  4. Prepare the barbecue sauce by mixing all ingredients together in a in a saucepan. Simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 40-45 minutes or until thickened.

  5. Remove ribs from oven and remove the foil. Drizzle with olive oil and return to oven at 350°F for 15 minutes or until the rub becomes nice and crusty.

  6. Remove ribs from oven and transfer to lined tray. Pour any juices from the Grill Pan over the ribs.

  7. Return ribs to the Grill Pan with bonier side up. Slather with Barbecue Sauce and bake for 10 minutes.

  8. Remove from oven, then turn ribs over so the meaty side is up. Slather with Barbecue Sauce and bake for 5 minutes. Repeat 2 or 3 more times until there’s a thick glaze on the ribs.

  9. Slice ribs as desired and slather with more barbecue sauce. Serve and enjoy this backyard BBQ classic without ever firing up the grill!
