Step By Step

Instructions

1
Preheat oven to 250°F

Chipotle Pineapple BBQ Sauce

1
Preheat saucepan to medium heat, and add olive oil. Once oil is hot, add garlic and onions and sauté for 4-5 minutes, or until translucent. Add brown sugar and white vinegar, and cook until melted.
2
Add chipotle puree and crushed pineapple, and bring to a simmer. Simmer on low heat for 15-20 minutes.
3
Remove from heat, and let cool for 10 minutes. Puree in blender or with immersion blender.
4
Once ribs are tender (they should come apart easily but not fall apart), remove from oven. Turn heat up to 375°F. Unwrap foil and discard, then brush ribs generously with chipotle pineapple BBQ sauce.
5
Bake for 20-30 minutes and apply more BBQ sauce every 10 minutes. This stage can also be done on a grill!
