Ingredients

3-4 pounds pork spare ribs or baby back ribs
2 tablespoons smoked paprika
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup sugar-free keto BBQ sauce
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup water

Method

1

Pat the ribs dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, combine smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper.

2

Rub the spice mixture generously all over the ribs, ensuring they are fully coated.

3

Pour the apple cider vinegar and water into the bottom of a large slow cooker.

4

Place the seasoned ribs into the slow cooker. If they don't fit flat, you can cut them into smaller sections or stand them upright along the sides.

5

Cook on low for 4-6 hours, or on high for 2-3 hours, until the ribs are very tender and easily pull away from the bone.

6

Once cooked, carefully remove the ribs from the slow cooker and transfer them to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

7

Preheat your oven broiler to high. Brush the ribs generously with the sugar-free keto BBQ sauce.

8

Broil for 3-5 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning, until the sauce is caramelized and slightly sticky.

9

Remove from the oven, let rest for a few minutes, then cut into individual ribs and serve hot.
