Smoked Ribs With Spicy Mango Bbq Sauce Low Sugar Recipes

SPICY MANGO JALAPEñO BBQ SAUCE (NO SUGAR ADDED)

Steps:

• In a large pot set to medium heat melt 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil and add the onions. Stir occasionally until the onions are soft (golden/starting to caramelize), and sweet to the taste (at least 20 minutes). *you may need to adjust the heat and turn it down if they are browning too fast.
• Next add the garlic and jalapeño and stir together for 2 minutes.
• Add remaining ingredients and bring to a simmer. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the mango cubes have softened.
• Using a hand immersion blender, or countertop blender, blend your sauce until smooth and there are no chunks.
• Taste and adjust seasonings to your preference. If too thick add water or more apple cider vinegar. If you're flexible on sweetness, add some sweeteners (honey, maple syrup, etc. to your taste preferences).

SWEET SMOKED PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Stir salt, white sugar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, black pepper, white pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, paprika, and cumin together in a small bowl to make the dry rub. Rub the spice mixture into the baby back ribs on all sides. Wrap the ribs well with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes prior to cooking.
• Unwrap baby back ribs and place onto the wire racks of the smoker in a single layer.
• Place the racks into a smoker, fill the smoker pan with apple, grape, pear, or cherry chips, and bring the smoker to 270 degrees F (130 degrees C). Smoke for 1 hour.
• Stir together the apple juice, 1/4 cup brown sugar, and the barbeque sauce. Brush the ribs with the sauce every 30 to 45 minutes after the first hour. Cook the ribs in the smoker until the meat is no longer pink and begins to "shrink" back from the bones, 3 to 4 hours. Brush the sauce onto the ribs one last time 30 minutes before the ribs are ready to be taken out of the smoker.
• Once the ribs are done, wrap them tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest 10 to 15 minutes. This will allow the juices to reabsorb into the meat and make the ribs moist.
