Honey Chipotle Ribs are easy to make on the grill. BBQ Ribs that are finished with a delicious Honey Chipotle BBQ sauce!
Oh my goodness are these so flavorful and moist! The weather has been so beautiful and we’ve been firing up the grill nearly every night. I love grilling outdoors and leaving the mess behind. Plus, it’s so easy to create flavorful meals in no time flat! Try making your own homemade Barbecue Sauce or Peach Barbecue Sauce.
What Temperature to Cook Ribs on the Grill:
Heat your gas or charcoal grill to medium (about 300 degrees F) Sprinkle with desired seasonings. Grill for about 1 ½ to 2 hours over indirect heat until tender. Baste with honey balsamic chipotle barbecue sauce during the last 30 minutes or so and cook over direct heat, on low to medium. Carefully watch the ribs so they do not burn. Use tongs to turn the ribs frequently and baste with additional sauce as they finish cooking.
Whether you’re using a charcoal or gas grill, your results will be excellent!
I mean, how good do these ribs look?! Also try my Whiskey Marinated Steak, Best Chicken Marinade, Citrus Marinated Chicken, and Whiskey Grilled Chicken.
Smithfield Fresh Pork is perfect any night on the grill, whether a great weeknight meal or getting together to barbecue with family and friends. Get grilling outdoors and enjoy the nice weather! I’m excited about hosting many backyard gatherings this summer! We love making Tomato Bruschetta for family picnics too!

How to cook Corn on the Grill:
I bought corn that was partially shucked, so the silk was removed. I simply wrapped 4 ears in aluminum foil and placed them on the grill with my ribs. Rotate the package of corn a few times as it cooks. The aluminum foil helps steam the corn and keeps it moist. Cook in the foil for about 20-25 minutes. Then unwrap and set the corn directly on the grill to get some great grill marks. Use rubber tipped tongs to easily turn the corn!
Take the corn off the grill and top with Parmesan herb butter: 2 tablespoons thyme and rosemary leaves minced mixed with 1 stick butter and 3 tablespoons Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately with your ribs!

on a mobile browser the amount of honey is missing from the list of ingredients . it does show up on a pc browser. i sent a previous email saying it was totally missing, but checked it again via computer and not on phone.

The recipe does not list the amount of honey. Or it doesn’t on 7/1/2020.

These sweet and spicy ribs look delicious! Ribs are not something we usually grill. However, I will have to give them a try. The grilled corn is perfect with the ribs.
