Low Carb Jerk Ribs

Ribs were on sale this week so I thought it was time to make Low Carb Jerk Ribs. Some times I like a little kick to my

food so I thought this recipe will do the trick. Mind you my husband does not like to much spice so I cut back on the

jerk spice, but I hope you will smoother the ribs with it and have that glass of wine or water to cool you off.

The BBQ Sauce is a little bit of surprise by having a great orange flavor which I find a great combination with the jerk spice.

So lets get started and I will show you how to make it!

1 full rack of Pork Back Ribs
Jerk Spice ( you can buy it already made but it has sugar in it or you can make your own)
