Keto BBQ ribs with creamy squash salad

Ingredients

• 3 lb spareribs ((thin))
• 1 tsp salt
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp tomato paste
• 1 yellow onion ((thin))
• 1 tbsp chili powder
• 2 tsp garlic powder
• 2 tsp fennel seeds
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
• 14 oz canned whole tomatoes
• 2 tbsp cider vinegar
• 2 lb zucchini ((thin))
• 2 tbsp butter oil
• 3 oz celery ((thin))
• 2 oz scallions ((thin))
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp chopped fresh chives ((thin))

Instructions

1. Salt the ribs on both sides and place in a slow cooker.
2. Add half of the BBQ sauce and cook for 6-8 hours on low heat. Take out the ribs and let them cool.
3. (You can complete this step a day in advance if you wish.) Finish off the ribs on the grill or under the broiler.
4. Crisp up the surface of the meat; this takes about 15 minutes total.
5. Flip the racks over at the half-way point. Serve with the squash salad and the rest of the BBQ sauce.
