Time 4h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 18

¼ cup light brown sugar
3 tablespoons sea salt
4 ½ teaspoons chili powder
4 ½ teaspoons dried lemon peel
4 ½ teaspoons paprika
4 ½ teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons black pepper
1 cup seedless raspberry jam
¼ cup chipotle salsa
¼ cup white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
¼ teaspoon hickory liquid smoke
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 racks Smithfield® Extra Tender Pork Back Ribs, membrane removed
1 cup Handful hickory or apple wood chips for smoking, soaked in water and drained
¾ cup tamarind juice, in a spray bottle*

Steps:

  • About one hour before smoking, make the dry rub. Combine all ingredients in small bowl; mix well. Pat ribs dry with paper towels; generously coat both sides of ribs with rub. Set aside at room temperature for 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce. Combine all ingredients in medium saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes until slightly thickened, stirring frequently. Cool to room temperature; cover and refrigerate.
  • Heat charcoal or gas grill for indirect cooking at 250 to 300 degrees F. Add drained wood chips, if using.
  • Place the ribs, meaty side up, over a drip pan and cook for 2 hours. Spray both sides of ribs with tamarind juice. Add about 12 coals to a charcoal grill every 45 minutes or so to maintain the heat.
  • Continue cooking ribs for 1 to 2 hours more until very tender, spraying with tamarind juice every 30 minutes. Add more coals as needed to maintain temperature for a charcoal grill.
  • Move ribs over direct heat on grill and brush with sauce. Cook for about 5 minutes until sauce is set. Turn ribs and repeat with more sauce.
  • Serve ribs with remaining sauce.

I'm not a big fan of ribs, but these were really good. The sauce was delicious and the ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender.
