This thread is in response to a specific request.

don't know what cut of ribs you wanna use - but i usually do this 3 - 4 days in advance...

you need a barbecue sauce for a base & i always wind up with extra so i use a processed sauce like Bull's Eye Original to start

in a 6 quart pot heat the sauce (again depending on the amount of ribs you want to cook the proportions are going to vary) about half the bottle

add 1 onion chopped coarsely
4 +/- garlic cloves chopped coarsley
the juice of one lemon
tabasco or similar hot sauce to taste
crushed red pepper to taste - it's a work in progress so you'll have to taste it as you go - heheheh

let simmer about 15 minutes stirring often

add 1/4 cup molasses and stir to blend

simmer 10 minutes

add 1 cup bourbon - i use Grand Dad - don't skimp

simmer 5 minutes more

pour the sauce over the ribs in a sealable container - coat all over & refrigerate

if you do this ahead, turn each morning & evening till you're ready to burn them

preheat the grill HOT!!!

place the ribs on the grill & turn the grill down to low & close the lid - you may want to rotate the ribs as they cook between racks

if you save the sauce for a baste bring it to a boil for at least 10 minutes - but boil it!!!

the secret is low & slow

crack a couple of cold ones - sit back & watch the neighbors walk by
