(If using one-burner gas grill, cook over low heat.) Cover grill; cook over medium heat 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours or until no longer pink when cut near bone and pork is tender.
• Meanwhile, in 3-quart saucepan, mix Chipotle Barbecue Sauce ingredients; heat to boiling. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Brush sauce over pork 2 or 3 times during last 15 minutes of grilling.

CHIPOTLE SALSA

Steps:

• Combine tomatillos, onion, water, and garlic, in a saucepan. Cover and simmer, turning occasionally, until tomatillos turn slightly brown and become soft, 15 to 20 minutes. Add more water as needed, 1/4 cup at at time. Add chipotle peppers, salt, pepper, cumin, and oregano; mix to combine.
• Pour saucepan contents into a blender and blend until smooth. Allow to cool before serving.

HONEY CHIPOTLE RIBS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the ketchup, honey, sauce from the chipotles, chipotle chiles, garlic, olive oil, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire, Maggi, black pepper and oregano. Mix well.
• Line a large roasting pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Pour some sauce on the bottom of the pan, put in the ribs and pour the remaining sauce on top. Cover with foil, sealing the entire top of the pan, and marinate for 30 minutes up to 24 hours. If marinating more than 30 minutes, keep the ribs refrigerated.
• When ready to cook the meat, remove it from the refrigerator. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Slip the pan with the ribs into the oven and roast for 1 1/2 hours. Take the ribs from the oven and carefully remove the aluminum foil, taking care not to be burned by the steam. Spoon the thickened sauce from the bottom of the pan on top of the ribs and place them back in the oven to roast another 20 to 30 minutes, or until they are beautifully browned and sticky. Remove from the oven, let rest, then slice into 2- to 3-bone pieces and pile on a platter.
• Alternatively, after you remove the foil, you can finish off the ribs on the grill at medium heat, for about 15 minutes.

• Coat both sides of the ribs with the sauce, saving 2/3 cup for basting. Arrange the ribs, meaty-side up, in 1 layer in a foil-lined baking sheet. Cover the pan tightly with foil and bake the ribs 1 hour. Remove the foil (from the top), baste with the remaining BBQ sauce and bake the ribs 1 hour more.
• Allow the cooked ribs to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
