The sweet caramel taste of bourbon and tart lemon makes these doused ribs irresistible.

Ingredients

2 racks pork back ribs (5 to 6 lb/2.2 to 2.7 kg)
4 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
2 tbsp  (30 mL)  Bourbon
1 tbsp  (15 mL)  grated gingerroot
1 tbsp  (15 mL)  lemon juice
1 tsp  (5 mL)  black pepper
3/4 tsp  (4 mL)  salt
1/2 tsp  (2 mL)  cayenne pepper
Whisky Sour Barbecue Sauce:
1/2 cup  (125 mL)  packed brown sugar
1/4 cup  (60 mL)  Bourbon or Canadian whisky
1/4 cup  (60 mL)  lemon juice
1/4 cup  (60 mL)  crushed tomatoes
2 tbsp  (30 mL)  fancy molasses
2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced

Preparation

Cut rib racks in half. Mix together garlic, whisky, ginger, lemon juice, pepper, salt and cayenne. Rub over both sides of ribs; place in plastic bag and refrigerate overnight or for up to 2 days.

Place ribs in roasting pan; cover with foil. Roast in 375°F/190°C oven until tender, about 90 minutes.

Whisky Sour Barbecue Sauce: Meanwhile, in saucepan over medium heat, stir together sugar, whisky, lemon juice, tomatoes and molasses. Boil until reduced by half, about 12 minutes. Reduce heat and stir in garlic; simmer for 1 minute. Set aside.

Grill ribs over medium-high heat, covered, until lightly browned on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. Brush meat side of racks with some of the sauce; cover and grill for 5 minutes. Turn over and grill until sauce is glazed, about 1 minute. Turn again and brush remaining sauce over top; cover and grill for 3 minutes. Turn; grill for 1 minute. Cut into individual pieces.
