| = (or 1 to 2 tspns lemon juice, | ||
| Depending on sweetness of barbecue sauce) | ||
| 1/2 teaspoon | 2.5ml | Ground cumin |
Heat the oven to 375 degrees.
Trim ribs of excess fat, rinse and blot dry. Arrange the ribs, rounded-side up, in a single layer on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Roast, uncovered, 30 minutes.
Combine the chili powder, 2 teaspoons brown sugar, salt and pepper to taste in a small dish. Remove the ribs from the oven and sprinkle the chili mixture on both sides, rubbing the mixture in. Continue to roast the ribs, rounded-side down, for 20 minutes. Use tongs to turn. Roast 10 minutes longer.
Meanwhile, bring the barbecue sauce, onion, water, pureed chipotles, 1 to 2 tablespoons brown sugar or lemon juice and cumin to a boil; reduce the temperature and simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes.
After the ribs are cooked, cut into 2-rib portions; place in a large shallow casserole. While the ribs and barbecue sauce are hot, pour all but 1/2 cup of the barbecue sauce over the ribs. Brush the sauce on both sides. (This can be made a day ahead, cooled and refrigerated, well covered. Chill reserved sauce separately.)
Bake the ribs, rounded-side up, covered with foil, at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Uncover; bake about 20 to 30 minutes longer. Serve hot; pass the remaining sauce separately.
