On the occasion I enjoy Keto Lazy Apple Butter Ribs. Pork ribs are one of my all-time favorite comfort foods. I absolutely LOVE ribs! For this reason, I’m always hunting for different, interesting, or even classic dry rub and sauce recipes to switch it up for Shawn and me. While day-tripping to nowhere, but everywhere, Shawn and I found this little smoked rib joint not far from our home. I broke away from my strict Keto lifestyle, and enjoyed the apple butter ribs. They are Keto Lazy — over 10 net carbs per meal, but under 20 net carbs. Classic apple butter is loaded with sugar – besides the natural sugar from the apples.

You can enjoy the apple butter on these ribs in moderation. Remember apples are still loaded with sugar!

The predominant taste sensation in the Keto Lazy Apple Butter Ribs is the sweetness (from the sweetener, depending on what you use) in the apple butter. The apple butter is also spicy from the cloves.

WHAT NON ALC WINE HARMONIZES WITH KETO LAZY APPLE BUTTER RIBS?

Let’s talk wine with Keto Lazy Apple Butter Ribs. With the predominant taste sensation being sweetness from the apple butter, you’ll need to pair these delicious ribs with a crisp, white non alcoholic wine with excellent acidity and sweetness to match. Remember if the dish is sweeter than the non-alc wine, the wine will taste like paint thinner. In following a Keto diet or in living a low-carb lifestyle, we don’t want to use up carbs on a glass of sweet wine. So you have a couple of options.

Drink whatever you like and don’t worry about pairing the wine to the apple butter sweetness. And by the way, the sweetness is subtle as the savory ribs also takes center stage. But there is still sweetness to consider. If you like to create harmony between the non alcoholic wine and the food, you’ll need some sweetness in the wine.

Add a pinch of monk fruit sweetener to your glass. Choose a fruity white like bone-dry de-alcoholized Riesling. Add the sweetener. This now off-dry white will now pair with the apple butter sweetness.

Zero Alcohol Wine Tips:

ALCOHOL AND KETOSIS:

To support your Keto diet or low-carb lifestyle, opt for quality, non-alcoholic wines that are low-carb and low in sugar. Additionally, alcohol does not align with a keto diet or low-carb lifestyle. Moreover, your liver processes alcohol before nutrients, pausing ketone creation and slowing the ketosis process. Furthermore, your body will metabolize alcohol as fuel before utilizing food, which can decelerate fat burning and may lead to the storage of carbs, fat, and protein as excess body fat. Moreover, alcohol consumption stimulates the appetite, potentially causing overeating.

ALCOHOL AND HEALTH:

Did you know that when you consume alcohol, your liver has to work extra hard to break it down? This can result in damage to your liver. Furthermore, it can elevate your risk of health issues such as inflammation and cancer, particularly with heavy consumption. Additionally, alcohol can disrupt your blood sugar levels, leaving you feeling dehydrated and disrupting your body’s normal functions.

NON-ALCOHOLIC WINE AND HEALTH BENEFITS:

Non-alcoholic wines with minimal carbs and sugar are advantageous for your health. They not only aid in weight management, blood sugar control, and hydration but also contain essential nutrients and antioxidants from grapes that can decrease your risk of health conditions like heart disease. Consequently, since they lack alcohol, they’re ideal for socializing without any adverse effects, promoting feelings of happiness and reduced stress.
