Here are some additional tips and tricks for making the best kicked up oven baked pork baby back ribs:

• Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs. This will help the ribs to cook more evenly and prevent them from becoming tough.

• Score the fat cap on the ribs. This will help the fat to render out and create a more flavorful crust.

• Preheat your oven to the correct temperature. This will help to ensure that the ribs cook evenly.

• Don't overcrowd the baking dish. If you put too many ribs in the baking dish, they will steam instead of crisp.

• Bake the ribs until they are cooked through. The internal temperature of the ribs should reach 145 degrees F.

Here is a story about how I came to love ribs:

I grew up in a small town in the Midwest, and my family loved to barbecue. Every summer, we would have a big barbecue with all of our friends and family. My dad would always make ribs, and they were always the most popular dish. I loved the smoky flavor of the ribs, and the way the meat would fall off the bone.

As I got older, I started to experiment with different ways to make ribs. I tried different rubs and sauces, and I even tried smoking them. I found that I really enjoyed the process of making ribs, and I loved the satisfaction of seeing my guests enjoy them.

Now, I make ribs for special occasions, and I always get rave reviews. I'm so glad that I learned to love ribs, and I'm excited to share my love of ribs with others.
