PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat oven to 300°F.

  Remove the thin membrane from the back of the ribs using a paper towel for a better grip.

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

• 5

  Wrap the ribs tightly in aluminum foil and place on a baking sheet; bake for 2 hours until tender.

  While ribs bake, whisk together tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and maple syrup to create the glaze.

• 7

  Remove ribs from the oven, carefully open the foil, and brush the glaze generously over the top.

• 8

  Increase oven temperature to a broil and cook the ribs uncovered for 3-5 minutes until the glaze is bubbly and slightly charred.

  Steam the green beans in a steamer basket for 5 minutes until vibrant and tender-crisp.
