I was going through my recipes trying to find the best meal for the upcoming Father's Day. And because men need real food, pork ribs seemed to be the best option.
Not only they're keto-friendly, but they're also an effortless & delicious award for all Fathers! These BBQ Ribs go great with greens, grilled vegetables or my Low-carb French Fries!

Ingredients (makes 4 servings)
- 2 average racks pork ribs (1.6 kg/ 3.5 lb) - will yield about 50% meat
- 1 medium shallot or 1/2 medium white onion (60 g/ 2.1 oz)
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil (60 ml/ 2 fl oz)
- 1 tsp smoked sea salt
- 1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the ribs the night before (or at least a couple of hours in advance). First, chop them into pieces.
- Prepare the marinade. Place all other ingredients in a blender and pulse until smooth.
- Cover the ribs in the prepared marinade and place them in the fridge overnight (or at least a few hours).
- Preheat the oven to medium-low 150 °C/ 300 °F (fan assisted), or 170 °C/ 340 °F (conventional). Cover with a baking foil, place the marinated ribs in the oven and cook slowly for 2 hours and 30 minutes.
- After 2 hours and 30 minutes, remove the foil and cook for 15 minutes.
- When the ribs are cooked, turn the oven off and take them out. You can also half-open the oven and leave the ribs in until you're ready to eat. You can serve them with BBQ sauce or sugar-free ketchup. If you have trouble finding a good low-carb BBQ sauce, try Spicy Chocolate BBQ Sauce.
