Award Winning Jalapeno Kiwi Glazed Ribs

One Rack of Ribs

Rub:
For best results, use Texas Gourmet Sweet Chipotle Season all rub

Baste:
1 Jar TXG Jalapeno Kiwi Jelly
4 oz. Orange Juice
1 T. Cooking Oil
1 T. Soy sauce
2 Cloves Fresh Garlic Minced (Mix above Baste ingredients together in a small sauce pan and heat at medium heat for 5-6 minutes.) Remove from heat.

Spray entire surface of ribs with olive oil spray, Pam, etc...

Generously spread rub on both sides of ribs - cover and place in refrigerator

Allow ribs to set 2-3 hours before cooking.

Place ribs on smoker or grill with indirect heating, approximately 1.5 hours at 250 - 275 degrees. Turn the ribs every 30 minutes.
I recommend 1/3 charcoal, 1/3 mesquite and 1/3 hickory smoking wood.

Baste the ribs liberally with the basting sauce. Wrap them in heavy duty foil, but leave a small opening at the top center.

Allow to keep cooking at 250 - 275 degrees for another hour, basting every 30 minutes or so.

Remove from the heat and the foil, then return the ribs to the heat for 20 minutes to finish them off. Remove from heat, allow the ribs to rest, cover with foil tent for 20 minutes before slicing. Drizzle with remaining basting juices.

Bon appetit,
