Whiskey Grilled Baby Back Ribs



Scott Hibb's Amazing Whiskey Grilled Baby Back Ribs are a perfect combination of smoky, sweet, and savory flavors. The whiskey-infused marinade creates a caramelized crust on the ribs, making them irresistibly delicious.

Ingredients:

  • 2 racks baby back ribs
  • 1 cup whiskey
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 cup olive oil

Instructions:

Take the membrane off of the back of the ribs

To make the marinade, put soy sauce, garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a bowl and mix them all together

Pour half of the marinade over the ribs in a large plastic bag that can be closed again and again

Put the bag in the fridge for at least four hours, or better yet, overnight

Warm the grill up to a medium-high level

Take the ribs out of the marinade and let the extra run off

Save the marinade to use as a basting sauce

Brush oil on the grill grates to keep food from sticking

Put the ribs on the grill and cook for about 20 minutes, turning them over and basting them with the marinade you saved

It will take another 30 to 40 minutes of cooking until the ribs are browned and fully cooked

Wait a few minutes before cutting the ribs
