Both sets of ribs are scratch made & salt tenderized the night before (after removing the membrane), the BBQ w/ sea salt & the Mexican chipotle adobo with a can of *La Costena Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce* chopped / diced or similar (which contains the salt).
Just before grilling, I do a dry rub on both racks, Meathead’s dry rub recipe 👍 on the BBQ ribs & a liberal amount of brown sugar on the Mexican chipotle adobo ribs. Then the two racks are grilled low & slow indirect for >4 hrs over water trays (to keep them moist). One can optionally smoke too.
I finish both racks at the end of the cook on the grill with low direct heat for a few minutes on both sides. A premium BBQ sauce is brushed onto the BBQ ribs (no salt) at this time to caramelize it w/out burning. And the direct heat finish denatures most all the spiciness of the Mexican chipotle adobo ribs, leaving excellent earthy flavors along with the brown sugar sweetness.
Enjoy & have a great Sunday.

Made these again & so tasty. Big racks! If you want to see pictures of them cut, check out the last two pics here from earlier this year, [https://www.reddit.com/r/grilling/comments/14otyez/pork_back_ribs_done_bbq_mexican_chipotle_adobo/](https://www.reddit.com/r/grilling/comments/14otyez/pork_back_ribs_done_bbq_mexican_chipotle_adobo/)
