Spicy Chipotle Glazed BBQ Ribs
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 racks of pork ribs
- 1 tablespoon chipotle powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- In a small bowl, mix together 1 tablespoon of chipotle powder, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon of cumin, and 1/2 teaspoon of paprika to create the dry rub.
- Season the racks of pork ribs with the dry rub, making sure to coat both sides evenly. Let the ribs sit at room temperature for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
- In a saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of ketchup, 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar, 1/4 cup of honey, 1/4 cup of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce, and salt and pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes until it thickens into a glaze. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Place the seasoned ribs on the preheated grill and cook for 2-3 hours, turning occasionally, until the meat is tender and cooked through. During the last 15 minutes of cooking, brush the chipotle glaze onto the ribs, allowing it to caramelize and create a sticky coating.
- Once the ribs are cooked and glazed, remove them from the grill and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your spicy chipotle glazed BBQ ribs!
