Ingredients

• Rub:
• 1 1/2 tbsp sweet paprika
• 1 tbsp salt
• 1 1/2 tbsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tbsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp onion powder
• 1/2 tbsp cayenne
• 1/2 tbsp dried thyme
• 1/2 tbsp dried oregano
• Ribs:
• 5 lbs American style pork ribs, cut into individual ribs
• 12 oz bottle dark beer
• Chipotle BBQ Sauce:
• 14 oz can crushed tomato
• 3.5 oz can chipotle in adobo sauce
• 1 large brown onion, diced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tbsp tomato paste
• 2 tbsp brown sugar
• 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
• 1/3 cup Worcestershire
• 2 tbsp Tabasco

Directions

1. Combine the rub ingredients in a bowl. Pat the ribs dry, then rub with the rub. Refrigerate, covered, for at least 2 hours.

2. Preheat oven to 325. Take ribs out of the fridge, place in a large baking dish in a single layer.

3. Pour beer into the baking dish and cover with a lid. Place in the oven and cook for 1 hour. Meanwhile, make the sauce.

4. Take out of the oven and remove lid. Pour the sauce over the ribs, then return to the oven (uncovered). Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes, turning once or twice.

5. To finish off the ribs, grill for 5-10 minutes to get a nice browned finish on top.

6. Serve, garnished with fresh coriander/cilantro leaves and lime wedges.

7. Sauce: Blend or process the canned tomato, chipotle in adobo, onion and garlic in a food processor. Stir through remaining ingredients. Set aside until required.
