INGREDIENTS

5 oz baby back pork ribs

1 tsp smoked paprika

0.5 tsp garlic powder

0.5 tsp onion powder

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

2 tbsp sugar-free BBQ sauce

1.5 cup green beans

1 tsp apple cider vinegar

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 300°F and line a baking sheet with foil.

• 2

  Remove the thin membrane from the back of the ribs to ensure the spices penetrate the meat.

• 3

  In a small bowl, mix the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 4

  Rub the spice blend thoroughly over all sides of the pork ribs.

• 5

  Wrap the ribs tightly in aluminum foil and bake for 2.5 to 3 hours until meat is tender and pulling away from the bone.

• 6

  Carefully open the foil, brush the top of the ribs with the sugar-free BBQ sauce, and broil for 3-5 minutes until caramelized.

• 7

  While the ribs rest, steam the green beans until bright green and crisp-tender, then toss with apple cider vinegar.

• 8

  Slice the ribs between the bones and serve immediately alongside the tangy green beans.
