What you will need:

1 wooden spoon
1 metal spoon
1 small bowl
1 medium-sized bowl
1 blender
Aluminum foil
1 baking sheet
1 slab baby back ribs, membrane removed
1 yellow onion, quartered
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 (7 ounce) can chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
3 tbspns olive oil
2 tablespoons yellow mustard powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon coarse salt

Cooking and Directions:

Combine salt, oregano, and mustard in small bowl. Set aside. Place chipotle pepper, onion, garlic, and olive oil in blender. Cover blender with lid and puree ingredients until smooth. Pour in dry-mixed ingredients and pulse again in blender. Preheat oven at 275 degrees. Coat and lather the slab of baby back ribs (on both sides) with blended sauce. Gently wrap seasoned pork ribs in aluminum foil and place on baking sheet. Place ribs and baking sheet in oven to slowly bake for 3 hours. Unwrap and baste ribs after that time has elapsed. Set oven to broil. Place ribs under broiler to brown and singe to your liking on both sides. Remove browned ribs from oven and let ribs rest for at least 10 minutes before serving.
