Best Sticky Maple And Bourbon Pork Ribs Recipes

MAPLE BOURBON SMOKED RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat smoker to 225 degrees F.
• Remover the membrane from the ribs and season on both sides with Hey Grill Hey Signature Sweet Rub.
• Place ribs on smoker and smoke for 3 hours.
• Lay out two sheets of 18-inch wide Reynolds Wrap Heavy Duty foil side by side on a large work surface. Put 2 Tablespoons of butter on each sheet of foil. Sprinkle each with 1 Tablespoons of brown sugar.
• Remove the ribs form the smoker, place them meat side down onto the butter and brown sugar. Fold up all 4 sides of the foil without crimping to create a bowl (this is going to hold in the foiling liquid).
• Pour the maple syrup, bourbon and remaining butter onto the ribs.
• Bring together the long sides of the foil, so the ends meet over the food. Fold the foil together and then roll until the foil is tight against the ribs. Double fold the two short ends to completely seal the ribs in the foil. Place them back on smoker for 2 more hours.
• While your ribs are smoking, make the glaze. Combine all ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15-20 mins until the glaze reaches a syrupy consistency.
• Remove the ribs from the foil. Return them to the smoker and baste them with the glaze. Close the lid and smoke for additional 30-60 minutes or until the sauce is set and ribs are tender.

DYNAMITE BOURBON RIBS

Steps:

• Process brown sugar, bourbon, soy sauce, and garlic in a food processor or blender to mince garlic with other ingredients. Pour over ribs, and marinate for several hours in the refrigerator.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil grate.
• Place ribs on grate, and cover. Cook for 45 minutes to 1 hour depending on thickness of your ribs. When finished, the internal temperature of the ribs should be 160 degrees F (70 degrees C) when taken with a meat thermometer.

MAPLE GLAZED RIBS

Steps:

• Place ribs in a large pot, and cover with water. Cover, and simmer for 1 hour, or until meat is tender. Drain, and transfer ribs to a shallow dish.
• In a small saucepan, stir together the maple syrup, brown sugar, ketchup, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and mustard powder. Bring to a low boil, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Cool slightly, then pour over ribs, and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
• Prepare grill for cooking with indirect heat. Remove ribs from marinade. Transfer marinade to a small saucepan, and boil for several minutes.
• Lightly oil grate. Cook for about 20 minutes, basting with the cooked marinade frequently, until nicely glazed.

BROWN SUGAR AND BOURBON RIBS

Steps:

• For basting sauce:
• Whisk all ingredients in medium bowl to blend.
• For ribs:
• Mix first 7 ingredients in small bowl. Using small sharp knife, loosen membrane from underside of each rib rack and pull off (or score membrane). Rub 1 tablespoon seasoning mix into each side of each rib rack. Place ribs in large roasting pan. Cover and chill at least 6 hours and up to 1 day.
• Preheat oven to 325°F. Lift ribs from pan. Scatter onion, cinnamon stick, and ginger in pan. Pour in cider. Return ribs, meat side down, to pan; cover pan with foil. Roast ribs until meat is tender and begins to pull away from bones, about 2 hours. Uncover; cool at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours.
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill ribs until heated through and slightly charred, about 5 minutes per side. Brush generously on all sides with basting sauce. Grill until sauce becomes sticky glaze, about 3 minutes longer per side. Transfer rib racks to cutting board. Cut racks between bones into individual ribs. Arrange on platter and serve, passing remaining sauce separately.
