Ingredients

• 2 racks Pork baby back ribs
• 2 tablespoons Paprika (smoked or regular)
• 2 teaspoons Garlic powder
• 2 teaspoons Onion powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Cumin
• 1 teaspoon Sweetener (erythritol or stevia blend)
• 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C).

Step 2

Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs by sliding a knife underneath and peeling it off with your hands or a paper towel for grip.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, chili powder, cumin, sweetener, and cayenne pepper (if using). Mix well.

Step 4

Pat the ribs dry with a paper towel to ensure the rub adheres properly.

Step 5

Brush both sides of the ribs with olive oil to help the rub stick.

Step 6

Generously apply the dry rub mixture to both sides of the ribs, pressing it in to coat evenly.

Step 7

Wrap each rack of ribs tightly in aluminum foil, ensuring there are no gaps or holes for moisture to escape.

Step 8

Place the wrapped ribs on a baking sheet and bake for 2.5 hours in the preheated oven.

Step 9

Carefully unwrap the ribs (watch out for steam) and transfer them to a baking tray lined with foil for easier cleanup.

Step 10

Turn the oven to broil or preheat your grill to high heat.

Step 11

Broil or grill the ribs for 5-10 minutes to caramelize the rub and develop a crust, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.

Step 12

Remove the ribs from the heat and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 13

Serve with your favorite low-carb side dishes, like coleslaw, grilled vegetables, or a keto-friendly BBQ sauce if desired.
