Glaze:
1 cup orange juice
2 cups cider vinegar
1 (7 ounce) can chipotle peppers in adobo sauce,
pur�ed in the blender or finely chopped
1 cup soy sauce
4 cups granulated sugar
Ribs:
4 or 6 slabs baby back ribs, 10 to 12 ribs per slab
Chinese five-spice powder
Kosher salt
Coarse black pepper
To make the glaze: In a heavy 3-gallon non-reactive stockpot, reduce the orange juice to 1/4 cup. Add the vinegar, peppers, soy sauce and sugar and cook over medium-high heat until the sugar is melted and the sauce has reduced to 4 cups and coats the back of a spoon, about 20 to 30 minutes.
To make the ribs: Heat a gas or charcoal grill to medium-high. Season the ribs liberally on both sides with the spices. Place the ribs on the grill and cook about 5 minutes per side. Remove the ribs and let cool.
Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Wrap the ribs in plastic wrap, then in foil, place on a baking sheet, and bake for 1 1/2 hours.
Remove the ribs from the oven and let cool while still wrapped. Before serving, spoon the Orange-Chipotle Glaze over the ribs, liberally coating both sides.
Serve 1 slab of ribs per person, and pass the remaining glaze at the table.
Makes 4 to 6 servings.
I hope ya'll had a wonderful weekend. Mine was pretty exciting as we found a home for Samantha to buy. Yep, a two bedroom, one bathroom, single wide for...are ya ready for this? $99...nope, I didn't make a mistake and noooooo, it isn't a piece of poo dump either.
It's very nice. It just needs new paint and all new carpet. Still it's a great deal for just $99. She just has to wait for the credit check, which takes anywhere from 1-3 days, and then the closing will be within 7 days of that. It is one street over from her brother, down the street and around the corner from her step-sister and just a few streets away from us, so if she ever needs anything someone will be here for her. I'm so excited as is Rylie. As we were walking through the house Rylie went into the front bedroom and proclaimed that it was her room. LOL
Speaking of my lil' diva, she is miserable. Poor thing. I'm not sure if it is allergies or a cold. Her head is so stuffed up, she keeps sneezing, and she hardly slept last night. She also tended to talk in her sleep when she did finally fall asleep. Soooo, of course, if she is miserable and not sleeping...that means that mommy is not sleeping. y-a-w-n.
I got up this morning and set up a doctor appointment for Wednesday. If she starts to feel better I can cancel it, but if she continues like this or gets worse (God forbid), I'll be thankful that I made the appointment.
Have a great week!
