Remove ribs from oven and transfer braising liquid into a sauce pot. Over medium-low heat, reduce the juices until they reach a thick, syrupy consistency like molasses. Puree mango chutney, barbecue sauce and ginger in a food processer. Add to the reduced juices and heat through. Liberally brush ribs with the glaze.
