GUAVA BARBEQUE SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the water, guava paste, vinegar, rum, tomato paste, lemon juice, onion, ginger, soy sauce, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and scotch bonnet pepper into a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, whisking until evenly blended. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the sauce has slightly thickened and is richly flavored, 10 to 15 minutes. The sauce should be pourable. If it has become too thick, thin it with some water. Serve hot or cold.

GUAVA BBQ RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill.
• Season the ribs with the Creole seasoning, to taste. To make the sauce, in a medium pot over medium heat, add the tomato sauce with 1 teaspoon of Creole seasoning. Add the guava jelly, lemon juice, molasses, brown sugar, and sangria. Mix well. Cook for 15 minutes. Put the ribs on the grill. Brush the ribs with the sauce and grill for 10 minutes, then baste ribs again and turn them over. Baste this side as well and grill for 15 minutes. Continue to baste and turn until desired temperature is reached.

GUAVA CHIPOTLE RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
• Generously salt and pepper ribs. Lay out ribs in a single layer, in roasting pan. Cook ribs for 3 hours, turning once midway through cooking time. Remove from oven and cool slightly. Pour off any fat from bottom of pan. When meat is cool enough to handle cut slabs into individual ribs.
• While ribs are cooking, saute onion and garlic in olive oil in a large stockpot, until soft. Add remaining ingredients, except molasses and guava paste/jelly and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, reducing liquid by half, approximately 1 hour. Sauce should be thick, but still loose enough to pour. Add molasses and guava to sauce and continue reducing for 10 to 15 minutes until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. If sauce becomes too thick, thin with extra guava nectar and/or beer. Season with salt and pepper.
• Coat ribs generously with sauce in roasting pan. Continue cooking ribs for 1 hour more, or until rib meat is soft and easily pulled from bone. Sauce will thicken and darken on ribs, so be sure to turn darker ribs over. Before serving, brush ribs with additional sauce and serve extra sauce on the side.
