Back Ribs With Roasted Tomato, Honey And Chipotle Glaze

1. 1

   Combine all ingredients for the dry rub in a small bowl and mix well. Pat the ribs dry with paper towels and generously coat both sides of the ribs with the rub. Set aside at room temperature for 1 hour.

2. 2

   Preheat the oven to 300u00b0F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

3. 3

   Place the ribs on the baking sheet, meaty side up, and cook for 2 hours, spraying both sides of ribs with apple juice every 30 minutes. If ribs are drying out after an hour, cover with aluminum foil.

4. 4

   Meanwhile, make the roasted tomato, honey & chipotle glaze. Saute the tomatoes, onions, and garlic in olive oil over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook 2 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and cook for 15 minutes until the onions are tender; let cool. Carefully pour the glaze into a blender and pulse until smooth. Add water to thin if needed.

5. 5

   Remove the ribs from the oven and brush both sides with the glaze. Return the wrapped ribs to the oven and cook for 1 more hour, until very tender. Check for doneness by piercing with a knife.

6. 6

   For a caramelized char, set the oven to broil, and paint on another layer of glaze. Keep a close eye on the ribs in the broiler as they can burn quickly. Slice and serve with remaining glaze on the side.
