  Salt and pepper
 1 rack Beef Grilling Back Ribs (about 7 ribs long), approx 3 lb (1.5 kg)
 ½ cup (125 mL) barbecue sauce
 2 cloves garlic, minced
 1 onion, diced
 1 can (14 oz/398 ml) tomato sauce
 ⅓ cup (75 mL) maple syrup
 ⅓ cup (75 mL) red wine vinegar
 ¼ cup (50 mL) tomato paste
 2 tbsp (30 mL) minced canned chipolte peppers
 2 tbsp (30 mL) Worcestershire sauce
1

Season ribs with salt and pepper and grill over medium-high heat for 5 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally until browned all over. Place on a thick sheet of foil on a baking sheet. Thin barbecue sauce with 2 to 3 tbsp. water and pour over ribs. Over-wrap with another sheet of foil and crimp up edges to make a foil pouch. Roast in 250°F (120°C) oven for 2 to 3 hours until meat is fork tender.

2

Meanwhile sauté garlic and onion in a bit of vegetable oil until softened. Stir in remaining ingredients and bring to a simmer. Remove from heat. Reserve approximately 1 cup (250 mL) of sauce for dipping.

3

Brush ribs all over with the remaining sauce. If desired, grill briefly to set the sauce. Serve ribs with the reserved sauce for dipping.

Time Saver Tip: Use a bottled smokey flavoured barbecue sauce instead of making one from scratch.
