**Bourbon Honey Ribs**
**Ingredients:**
– 2 racks of pork ribs
– 1 cup bourbon
– 1/2 cup honey
– 1/4 cup soy sauce
– 2 tablespoons brown sugar
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
– Salt and pepper to taste
**Instructions:**
1. **Prepare the Ribs:**
– Start by preparing your ribs. Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs and trim off any excess fat. This will help the marinade penetrate the meat and ensure a more tender result.
2. **Marinate the Ribs:**
– In a mixing bowl, whisk together the bourbon, honey, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Place the ribs in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Make sure the ribs are well coated. Seal or cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
3. **Preheat the Grill:**
– Preheat your grill to medium heat, about 300°F (150°C). If using a charcoal grill, set it up for indirect cooking. For a gas grill, turn off one side and keep the other side on.
4. **Grill the Ribs:**
– Remove the ribs from the marinade and reserve any excess. Place the ribs on the grill, bone side down, over indirect heat. Cover and cook for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the meat is tender, basting with the extra marinade every 30 minutes.
5. **Glaze the Ribs:**
– In a small saucepan, heat the remaining marinade over medium heat until it thickens and becomes a glaze-like consistency. Brush the glaze onto the ribs during the last 15 minutes of cooking to create a sticky, flavorful crust.
6. **Serve and Enjoy:**
– Once the ribs are cooked to perfection, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing them between the bones. Serve your Bourbon Honey Ribs hot and enjoy the delicious combination of bourbon, honey, and BBQ flavors with your favorite sides for a truly satisfying meal.
