Ingredients

• 2 racks Pork ribs
• 2 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 2 tablespoons Coconut sugar substitute (e.g., erythritol blend)
• 1 cup Apple cider vinegar
• 1 cup Keto-friendly BBQ sauce

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

Step 2

Prepare the rib rub by combining the salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, dried thyme, and coconut sugar substitute in a small bowl.

Step 3

Remove the thin membrane from the back of the ribs for better seasoning penetration.

Step 4

Rub the prepared spice mixture evenly over both sides of the ribs.

Step 5

Wrap each rack of ribs tightly in aluminum foil to seal in the juices and flavors.

Step 6

Place the wrapped ribs on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 hours, until they are tender.

Step 7

Carefully remove ribs from the oven and unwrap them.

Step 8

Increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C).

Step 9

Brush each side of the ribs generously with the keto-friendly BBQ sauce.

Step 10

Return the ribs to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, basting with more BBQ sauce occasionally until they develop a glossy, caramelized finish.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let the ribs rest for about 10 minutes before cutting into individual ribs.

Step 12

Serve the ribs with extra BBQ sauce on the side and enjoy!
