Prep time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 2 hours 40 minute
Ready in: 3 hours
Serves: 4 people
• 2 (2 pound) slabs baby back pork ribs
• coarsely ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon ground red chili pepper
• 2 ¼ tablespoons vegetable oil
• ½ cup minced onion
• 1 ½ cups water
• ½ cup tomato paste
• ½ cup white vinegar
• ½ cup brown sugar
• 2 ½ tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 teaspoons salt
• ½ teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
• 1 ¼ teaspoons liquid smoke flavoring
• 2 teaspoons whiskey
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• ¼ teaspoon paprika
• ½ teaspoon onion powder
• 1 tablespoon dark molasses
• ½ tablespoon ground red chili pepper
1. Preheat oven to 300F
2. Cut each full rack of ribs in half, so that you halve 4 half racks
3. Sprinkle salt and pepper (more pepper than salt) and 1 tablespoon chili pepper over meat
4. Wrap each half rack in aluminum foil
5. Bake for 2 ½ hours
6. Meanwhile, heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat
7. Cook and stir the onions in oil for 5 minutes
8. Stir in water, tomato paste, vinegar, brown sugar, honey, and Worcestershire sauce
9. Season with 2 teaspoons salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, liquid smoke, whiskey, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, dark molasses, and ½ tablespoon ground chili pepper
10. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat
11. Simmer for 1 ¼ hours, uncovered, or until sauce thickens
12. Remove from heat, and set sauce aside
13. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat
14. Remove the ribs from the oven, and let stand for 10 minutes
15. Remove the racks from the foil, and place on the grill
16. Grill the ribs for 3 to 4 minutes on each side
17. Brush sauce on the ribs while they’re grilling, just before you serve them (adding it too early will burn it)
