A wooden cutting board with baby back ribs glazed in a glossy mustard sauce sits on a rustic wooden table. The ribs have a caramelized crust and are garnished with fresh rosemary and cracked black pepper. A small bowl of mustard sauce is placed beside the ribs for dipping, along with a lemon wedge. The scene is accented with coarse salt, peppercorns, and a folded linen napkin, creating a hearty and inviting presentation. Soft natural light highlights the smoky textures and rich, tangy glaze of the ribs.
