  • Gently add the ribs to the pot and boil for 1 1/2 hours. Ribs should be tender pliable.
  • Remove the ribs from the stock pot and place on an already hot grill and begin basting with the bbq sauce.
  • Grill for about 30 minutes, turning and basting with the Citrus-Chipotle BBQ Sauce, until the ribs are coated, sticky and done.

Citrus-Chipotle BBQ Sauce

  • In a large pot add the EVO , onion and garlic. Sweat the onions until they are translucent over medium heat.
  • Add the chipotle peppers and chili flakes and sautee for 3 minutes.
  • Add all the remaining ingredients and simmer on low heat for approximately 1 hour and fruit is softened and pulp has integrated into the sauce. Remember to stir the sauce often so it doesn’t scorch.
  • Remove the sauce from the heat and let cool.
