6. Place the spare ribs in a baking dish and thoroughly rub the prepared BBQ sauce all over them. 【Tip!】 The meat around the bones is rich in gelatin, giving it a melting texture when cooked.

7. Once the sauce is rubbed into the spare ribs, marinate them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
   🕒 10:17
8. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the marinated spare ribs. 【Tip!】 Place them on their sides, not bone-down, to ensure they cook evenly.

9. Cut 2 potatoes into wedges.
   🕒 13:13
10. Season the cut potatoes with salt and pepper to taste and olive oil to taste, then place them in the empty spaces on the baking sheet with the spare ribs.
    🕒 13:45
11. Bake the spare ribs and potatoes in a preheated 150°C oven for 60 minutes. 【Tip!】 Baking slowly at a low temperature makes the meat tender.
    🕒 14:48
12. After 60 minutes, remove from the oven and spread the remaining BBQ sauce over all the spare ribs.
    🕒 15:20
13. Return the sauced spare ribs and potatoes to the oven, baking them on the lower rack for another 30 minutes. 【Tip!】 Since the sauce can burn easily after application, baking on the lower rack is recommended.
