Chocolate Chipotle Chile Ribs

To be honest I was pretty hesitant to try ribs with chocolate in it, but I did and let me tell you they are the best damn ribs ever!!!! The BBQ sauce is amazing.. A touch of sweetness and a touch of heat make a great combination. You all have to try these. Enjoy!
---------------------------------------

Dry Spice:
2 tablespoons (30 ml) brown sugar
2 tablespoons (30 ml) chili powder
1 tablespoon (15 ml) sifted cocoa powder
1 tablespoon (15 ml) salt
1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) onion powder
5 lb (2.27 kg) baby back pork ribs

Chocolate BBQ Sauce:
1 onion, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon chipotle chile powder
2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil
1/2 cup (125 ml) chicken broth
1/2 cup (125 ml) ketchup
2 tablespoons (30 ml) lime juice
1 tablespoon (15 ml) brown sugar
1 tablespoon (15 ml) Worcestershire sauce
1 oz unsweetened or bittersweet chocolate, chopped

Method:
Cover ribs in seasoned water (2 Oranges,Cinnamon Stick, 1 Onion 3 garlic cloves, salt & pepper boil for 1 hour.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
In a bowl, combine all the rub ingredients. Set aside.
Set the ribs on the baking sheet and sprinkle generously with the rub, pressing into the meat.
With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 350'
Transfer the covered baking sheet to the oven and roast until the meat pulls easily from the bone, about 35 to 40 minutes.

Chocolate barbecue sauce:
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat, cook the onion and chile in the oil until golden. Add the remaining ingredients except the chocolate. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes. Off the heat, add the chocolate, stirring until smooth. Adjust the seasoning.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Uncover the ribs and baste with the sauce. Save any leftover sauce to serve as an accompaniment. Briefly run the ribs under the broiler for 15 to 20 minutes.
