Best Oven Roasted Ribs With Chipotle Molasses Barbecue Sauce Recipes

SPICE-RUBBED CHIPOTLE-MOLASSES RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Combine all spices in a bowl. Rub ribs on both sides with spice mixture.
• In a saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the soy sauce, 2 cups of water, and the ginger and bring to a boil. Pour the mixture into the bottom of a roasting pan and place the ribs on a rack in the pan. Brush with the Chipotle-Molasses Sauce. Place in the oven and bake for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours, basting every 15 minutes with the sauce.
• Heat the oil over medium heat in a heavy-bottomed medium saucepan. Add the onion and garlic and cook until translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the chili powders and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and water, bring to a boil, and simmer for 10 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients, except the peanut butter, and simmer for an additional 20 to 30 minutes or until thickened slightly, stirring occasionally. Transfer the mixture to a food processor with the peanut butter and puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Pour into a bowl and allow to cool at room temperature.

FALL APART OVEN BAKED RIBS WITH CHIPOTLE BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine the Rub ingredients in a bowl.
• Pat the ribs dry, then rub with the Rub. If time permits, refrigerate, covered, for at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Take ribs out of the fridge, place in a large baking dish in a single layer (squished is ok, they will shrink slightly).
• Preheat oven to 160C/325F.
• Pour beer into the baking dish and cover with a lid (use foil if you don't have a lid). Place in the oven and cook for 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, make the Sauce.
• Take out of the oven and remove lid. Pour the sauce over the ribs, then return to the oven (uncovered).
• Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes, turning once or twice, until the ribs are cooked to your liking. The meat should be very tender and comes off the bone easily, and the sauce should be thick and "jam-like". If the pan starts looking dry, add a splash of water.
• To finish the ribs off, grill/broil for 5 to 10 minutes to get a nice browned finish on top (this is an optional step).
• Serve, garnished with fresh coriander/cilantro leaves and wedges of lime.

CHIPOTLE BARBECUE RIBS

Steps:

• For the ribs: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large rimmed baking pan with foil.
• Place the ribs on the prepared baking pan meat-side up. Sprinkle them with the paprika, garlic powder, 1 tablespoon salt and a generous amount of pepper. Rub the spices all over the ribs.
• Cover the pan tightly with foil and bake until the meat is very tender and can easily be pulled off the bone, about 2 hours.
• For the barbecue sauce: Meanwhile, heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring often, until very soft and golden brown, about 20 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add the ketchup, orange juice, Worcestershire, chipotles and adobo and 1/2 cup water. Increase the heat to bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to keep at a simmer until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a blender and puree until smooth (be careful when blending hot liquids). Alternately, an immersion blender can be used in the pot.
• Finish the ribs: Preheat the grill to medium-high (or set the oven to broil).
• Reserve about a cup of the barbecue sauce for serving alongside the ribs. Brush a small amount of the remaining sauce on the bone side of the ribs and a generous amount on the meaty side.
• Grill the ribs, meaty-side up, until the underside is lightly charred, about 3 minutes. Turn the ribs over and grill until the meaty side is charred in spots, 3 to 5 minutes (if using the oven, simply broil for 3 to 5 minutes). Transfer to a cutting board and cut each rack in half. Serve immediately with the reserved sauce on the side.
