Number Of Ingredients 5

8 lbs pork baby back ribs (about 2 racks)
1 cup thick BBQ sauce (like Sweet Baby Ray's)
1 cup raspberry preserves
1 small onion (chopped)
2 chipotle peppers packed in adobo

Steps:

  • Place sauce ingredients in a blender or food processor and process until smooth; set aside.
  • Cook ribs your favorite way--leaving rack(s) whole. I used my Instant Pot and cooked at high pressure for 15 minutes, releasing the pressure immediately.
  • Heat your outside grill to high heat for direct cooking. When grill is heated, slather the ribs in the prepared sauce and grill each side until the sauce is bubbling and beginning to get brown. You can baste with the sauce several times while finishing them off for more flavor.
  • If a grill isn't an option, pop them under a broiler, basting frequently, until they are bubbly.

RASPBERRY CHIPOTLE BBQ SAUCE



Raspberry Chipotle BBQ Sauce image

This recipes combines inexpensive bottled BBQ sauce with raspberry preserves and spices. You can adjust the heat by adding more or less peppers and adding honey if you like. It's pretty spicy, but mellows as it grills. We use it on baby back ribs, but I imagine chicken or other grilled meats would be good too.

18 ounces barbecue sauce (bottled)

1 onion (chopped)
2 tablespoons red pepper flakes

Tips:

  • Prep your ribs: Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs and trim any excess fat. Cutting the ribs into individual portions makes them easier to manage on the grill or in the oven.
  • Make a flavorful marinade: The combination of chipotle peppers, raspberries, garlic, and spices creates a marinade that infuses the ribs with a unique and delicious flavor.
  • Let the ribs marinate: Allow the ribs to marinate for at least 4 hours, or up to overnight, to allow the flavors to fully penetrate the meat.
  • Grill or bake the ribs: You can cook the ribs on a grill or in an oven. If grilling, cook over indirect heat to prevent flare-ups. If baking, cover the ribs with foil to create a moist cooking environment.
  • Baste the ribs: During cooking, baste the ribs with the remaining marinade to keep them moist and flavorful. This will also help to create a caramelized crust.
  • Check for doneness: The ribs are done when the meat easily pulls away from the bone and has an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Conclusion:

These raspberry chipotle back ribs are a delicious and impressive dish that is sure to be a hit at any gathering. The marinade infuses the ribs with a unique and flavorful combination of sweet, spicy, and smoky flavors. The ribs are cooked to perfection, resulting in tender and fall-off-the-bone meat. Whether you choose to grill or bake them, these ribs are sure to be a crowd-pleaser.
