- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- A splash of extra virgin olive oil
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 cup (125ml) apple cider vinegar
- 2 cups (500ml) tomato passata
- 1/2 cup (75g) Lakanto Golden Raw Sugar Replacement
- 2 tsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tbsp Lakanto Monkfruit Sweetened Maple Flavoured Syrup
- 1 cup (250ml) water
- 1/2 an iceberg lettuce, finely shredded
- 2 celery stalks, cut into matchsticks

- 1/2 carrot, cut into matchsticks
- 1/2 red onion, finely sliced
- 1/2 cup (120g) GOOD FAT Mayo
METHOD
1. Get started by preheating your oven to 160°C (315°F).
2. In a large bowl combine the spice rub ingredients and mix well. Add the beef ribs, and use your hands to get all over even coverage, rubbing the flavour into the meat, and shaking off any excess.
3. In a medium baking pan, add the barbecue sauce ingredients and gently whisk or stir well to combine. Place the beef ribs meat side down into the sauce, cover firmly with foil, and transfer to the oven and bake for 3-4 hours.
4. At the 3-hour mark, take them out of the oven, remove the foil, turn the meat over, spoon each with some of the sauce and return to the oven to cook, uncovered for 30-40 minutes, or until the meat becomes sticky and caramelised. To work out if the beef is tender, simply use a fork to see if the meat will come freely off the bone, if so great, if not, re-cover with foil and return to the oven until they’re falling off the bone.
5. To make the easy iceberg slaw, combine the lettuce, celery, apple, carrot and red onion in a bowl, add the aioli and gently toss together, set aside in the fridge prior to serving.
6. Serve each rib on a plate with a side of your iceberg slaw, and spoonfuls of the sauce from the pan. Garnish with chopped parsley on top.
