Photo: Sweet Bourbon Baby Backs Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 slabs baby back ribs
- 1/2 to 1 cup bourbon
- 1 cup apple juice
- Salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons grill seasoning
- 4 to 5 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 jar prepared barbecue sauce
Directions
Preheat oven to 250 degrees F.
Cut the baby back ribs into smaller even sized portions and place them into a shallow baking dish meat side up. Cover the ribs with the bourbon, reserving about 1/4 cup for the sauce, and then add the apple juice. Rub the meat side with the salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, grill seasoning, and the garlic. Place the ribs into the oven for 3 to 3 1/2 hours.
Preheat the grill.
Remove the ribs from the oven and hold for grilling. Mix 1/4 cup of the bourbon with the BBQ sauce and then coat the ribs with the mixture. Place the ribs on the grill and cook for about 15 minutes. Remove from the grill and arrange on a platter. Serve with grilled corn alongside, if desired.

Love this recipe. It's definitely a hit, but I do make two modifications. I cook them at 275 for 2 hours in the oven then set my grill up for indirect heat and cook on low for another hour. And instead of the spices in the recipe, I use a rib rub. Best ribs you can make without a smoker!

I absolutly love this recipe for ribs. I only used the apple juice since I did not have bourbon and omited the red pepper flakes for the kids. I used are favorite bbq sauce and they turned out fantastic. I will continue to make these since they are easy and so delicious....

Cover the ribs with foil and do NOT pour the liquid over the rubbed ribs. Rather, place the ribs on top of the liquid, cover tightly with tin foil, remove foil for last 30 minutes and then grill over medium heat for about 10 minutes max, adding the bbq sauce during the last 5 minutes.
