  • 1/4 cup Tajín Mild Hot Sauce plus additional for serving, divided
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

Instructions

  • Rub ribs with seasoning. Marinate at least 4 hours or overnight in refrigerator.
  • Preheat oven to 300 F. Combine hot sauce, oil and brown sugar; brush over both rib racks.
  • Line baking sheet with double layer of aluminum foil with enough overhang to wrap foil around ribs.
  • Lay ribs, bone side down, on foil-lined baking sheet. Wrap foil around ribs and seal. Place on baking sheet.
  • Fill large baking dish or roasting pan with 2 inches of boiling water. Place on lower oven rack to keep ribs moist as they bake. Place ribs on middle oven rack.
  • Bake 2 1/2-3 hours, or until meat is tender and just starting to fall off bone.
  • Preheat broiler. Unwrap ribs and place on foil-lined baking sheet. Broil 4-6 minutes on middle oven rack, or until lightly charred and caramelized.
  • Serve with lime wedges and additional hot sauce.
  • Serve with mashed potatoes or steamed white rice, if desired.
