Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 racks Pork ribs
- 2 tablespoons Smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Sugar-free barbecue sauce
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Using a sharp knife, carefully remove the thin membrane from the back of the ribs to ensure tenderness.
In a small bowl, combine smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
Rub the spice mixture evenly over the racks of ribs, making sure to cover all sides.
Brush the ribs lightly with olive oil, which will help the rub adhere and promote a nice crust.
Wrap the ribs tightly in aluminum foil, creating a sealed packet. Place them on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 hours, or until the meat is tender and starts to pull away from the bones.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F).
Unwrap the ribs and generously brush them with sugar-free barbecue sauce.
Place the ribs on the grill, bone-side down, and cook for about 25-30 minutes.
During grilling, turn the ribs occasionally and baste with more barbecue sauce every 10 minutes to build a flavorful glaze.
Remove the ribs from the grill once the glaze is sticky and slightly caramelized.
Let the ribs rest for a few minutes before slicing between the bones to serve.
Enjoy your keto-friendly barbecued ribs with your favorite low-carb side dishes.
