The secret to these ribs is the stunning glaze—these have great depth of flavor with a beautiful hit of sweetness and spice. Marinate them overnight for best results!
Chipotle chiles in adobo are smoked, ripe jalapeño peppers cooked down in a sauce of tomato, garlic, vinegar and spices and then canned. You can find them at some supermarkets, specialty food stores and online.

Preparation
Step 1
Place the vinegar, onion, garlic, salt and water in a large pot over high heat and bring to a boil. Add the ribs, reduce the heat to medium and cover with a lid. Simmer for 30–40 minutes or until the ribs are tender.
Step 2
While the ribs are cooking, make the chipotle glaze. Mix to combine the chipotle chiles, onion flakes, Tabasco, cocoa powder, maple syrup, sugar and salt.
Step 3
Remove the ribs from the cooking liquid and place in a large deep-sided tray or pan. While the ribs are still hot, rub the chipotle glaze evenly over the ribs to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes until cool or overnight.
Step 4
Preheat oven to 425°F. Place the ribs on wire racks set over 2 rimmed baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Roast for 20 minutes, brushing with glaze every 5 minutes, until golden and caramelized. Serve with lime wedges, pickled jalapeño peppers and the Corn and Jalapeño Chile Flatbreads, if desired.
