Ingredients
Scale
- 2 racks baby back pork ribs
- 1 Tbsp ground cumin
- 1 Tbsp paprika
- 1 Tbsp garlic powder
- 1 Tbsp chili powder
- 1 Tbsp onion powder
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- 2 Tbsp salt
- 2 tsp black pepper
- 2 Tbsp Swerve Brown Sugar powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees.
- Cut 4 pieces of foil all equal size, place 2 pieces on the counter then 1 rack on each piece of foil.
- In a small bowl mix, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, chili powder, salt, pepper, and Swerve brown sugar.
- Once mixed, spread the dry rub on the 2 racks of ribs. Rub into each rack, making sure you get the top, bottom, and sides fully coated.
- Take your other 2 pieces of foil and cover the top of the ribs. Seal up all the sides tightly.
- Place ribs on a baking tray and place in oven. Cook for about 5 hours.
- Very carefully take the foil off the ribs, then place back in the oven on High Broil. It only needs a few minutes to crisp, so keep an eye on it.
- Serve with BBQ sauce on the side if desired.
Notes
- NET Carbs: 4.3 per serving
- If you like leftovers, double the recipe.
- You can omit the Swerve Brown Sugar, but it adds just a very slight sweetness that is perfect, especially if you aren’t using BBQ Sauce.
- If you want to grill them, only cook for about 2 hours in the oven at 350 degrees, then throw them on the grill for about 10-20 minutes.
- Baby back ribs are smaller than Spare Ribs, so you will need about 1 ½ more than Spare Ribs.
- Baby Back and Spare ribs can both be used, but keep in mind that because Spare Ribs are larger they will take a bit longer to cook.
- If you want to make ribs ahead, they can be seasoned, wrapped in plastic wrap, and then refrigerated overnight before baking.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
