INGREDIENTS

16 oz Baby back 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

1 tbsp Tomato paste

1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar

1 tsp Maple syrup

0.25 tsp Liquid smoke

1 cup Green beans

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with heavy-duty aluminum foil.

• 2

  Remove the thin, silvery membrane from the back of the ribs by loosening it with a knife and pulling it off with a paper towel.

• 3

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

• 4

  Rub the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the ribs, pressing it into the meat.

• 5

  Place the ribs on the prepared baking sheet and wrap the foil tightly around them to seal in the moisture.

• 6

  Bake for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and starting to pull away from the bone.

• 7

  While the ribs bake, whisk together the tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, and liquid smoke in a small bowl to create the glaze.

• 8

  Carefully open the foil, brush the glaze generously over the top of the ribs, and broil for 3-5 minutes until the sauce is bubbly and slightly charred.

• 9

  Steam the green beans for 5-7 minutes until vibrant and tender-crisp, then serve alongside the ribs.
