Ingredients
- 1 rack of baby back pork ribs
Barbecue Sauce
- 1 cup ketchup
- 3/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup blackstrap molasses
- 1 cup crushed pineapple with juice
- 2 tbsp spiced rum
- 1 tbs Dijon mustard
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tbs Worcestershire sauce (ensure that it's gluten-free)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1/4 tsp ginger
- 1/4 tsp cayenne
Instructions
- In a medium-sized pot over medium heat, stir together the ketchup, maple syrup and molasses. Keep at a low simmer for 2-3 minutes.
- While your pot is simmering, add the remaining ingredients into a high-powered blender and blend until smooth. Add the blender ingredients to the simmering pot and stir for 3-4 minutes more. Then turn off the heat.
- To prepare the ribs, line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil (enough to wrap the ribs).
- Take 3/4 cup of the sauce and mix with an equal amount of water. Pour this evenly around the ribs, then lightly wrap the foil around them.
- Place the ribs in a 275 degree oven for 3 hours. This process steams the meat, making it tender while infusing it with flavor.
- After the ribs have finished cooking, remove from the oven. Using tongs, place on a large platter to carry to your grill.
- Heat the grill to medium-high heat. Use the remaining sauce to generously brush both sides of the ribs.
- Place the ribs on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes each side. Serve immediately.
