Svinjska rebra na žaru
Grilled Pork Ribs with Keto Sides
Yes, with a tweak: request no sugary BBQ sauces or glazes. About 8g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Serbian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender pork ribs, grilled or slow-cooked and then finished on the grill. A very fatty and satisfying dish. The primary modification involves ensuring no sugary BBQ sauces are used.
Key ingredients
Pork ribs, salt, pepper, olive oil.
How to make it keto
Crucially, request no sugary BBQ sauces or glazes. Ask for them simply seasoned with salt and pepper, or a dry rub. Omit all starchy sides (fries, potato salad, bread). Request a simple green salad with oil and vinegar or grilled low-carb vegetables.
