Pork Ribs With Molasses-Chile Barbecue Sauce

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 225u00b0 F.

2. 2

   In a food processor or blender, combine the paste ingredients and blend until smooth.

3. 3

   Dry the ribs with paper towels, then rub them thoroughly with the paste.

4. 4

   Place the ribs on two baking sheets and slow roast for 3-5 hours, or until red juice comes out when you poke the meat with a fork and the meat is tender and pulls easily from the bone. The longer you cook the ribs the better, just don't let them dry out.

5. 5

   Remove the ribs from the oven.

6. 6

   They can go right onto the grill, stand out for a while, or be refrigerated, covered, for up to 2 days.

7. 7

   While the ribs are roasting, combine the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and mix well; set aside.

8. 8

   Light a fire in your grill.

9. 9

   You want a very low charcoal fire with the rack set as high as possible.

10. 10

    Put the ribs on the grill and let them stay there as long as your patience allows.

11. 11

    A light crust on the outside is the goal, and, depending on your fire, it can be achieved in 5 minutes per side or take up to 30 minutes per side.

12. 12

    If you're into prolonging your guests' agony.

13. 13

    Of course, the longer the ribs cook, the better.

14. 14

    Brush them with the sauce during the last minute on the grill.

15. 15

    Cut the ribs apart between the bones and serve with the remaining barbecue sauce on the side.
