Bake the ribs: Set the oven to 300Â°F. Move the ribs to an oven rack in the middle of the oven. Roast for 2 1/2 to 3 hours for spare ribs or 1 1/2 to 2 hours for baby back ribs. Halfway through cooking, cover the ribs with aluminum foil to protect them from drying out.
Slow Roasting the Ribs. Another way to precook ribs for the grill is in your oven or slow cooker. Season the ribs ahead of time with a dry rub made from herbs and spices or dried spicy dip mix, then place them on a sheet pan or in your slow cooker. Use the low setting on the slow cooker, or preheat your oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit. Slow-roast the ribs until they are nearly fork-tender, usually for 2 1/2 to 4 hours depending on the size of the rack. Transfer the ribs to your grill, and finish them over direct heat with your favorite sauce.
