Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds beef back ribs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 cup low carb BBQ sauce
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Rinse and pat dry the beef ribs. Place them on a large baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, ground black pepper, and sea salt to create a rub.
Brush the ribs with the olive oil and spice rub, ensuring they're evenly coated on all sides.
Cover the baking sheet with another piece of foil, sealing the edges to create a packet.
Bake the covered ribs in the preheated oven for 2.5 hours, or until the meat is tender and easily pulls away from the bone.
Remove the ribs from the oven and increase the temperature to 375°F (190°C).
Carefully open the foil packet and brush the ribs generously with the low carb BBQ sauce.
Return the ribs to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 20-30 minutes until the sauce is caramelized and slightly sticky.
Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Slice between the bones to separate individual ribs, and serve with extra BBQ sauce on the side if desired.
