Step 1
Preheat oven to 225°F. Pat ribs dry with paper towels on both sides.
Step 2
Mix brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt in a small bowl.
Step 3
Rub the spice mixture evenly across all sides of both rib racks, pressing gently.
Step 4
Line a large roasting pan with foil. Place ribs bone-side down on the pan.
Step 5
Cover tightly with foil. Roast for 2.5 hours until meat pulls back 1/4 inch from bone tips.
Step 6
Remove foil. Brush glaze evenly over top and sides of both racks.
Step 7
Return to oven, uncovered, for 20 minutes until glaze sets and darkens slightly.
Step 8
Rest 5 minutes, then slice between bones and serve immediately.
