Ingredients

4 lbs pork ribs

1 cup maple syrup

1/2 cup bourbon

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

1/4 cup soy sauce

1/4 cup brown sugar

2 tbsp smoked paprika

1 tbsp garlic powder

1 tbsp onion powder

1 tsp cayenne pepper

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat your grill to medium heat.

2. In a mixing bowl, combine maple syrup, bourbon, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.

3. Place the ribs in a large dish and pour the marinade over them, making sure they are well-coated. Marinate for at least 2 hours in the refrigerator, or overnight for best results.

4. Remove the ribs from the marinade and place them on the grill.

5. Grill the ribs for about 1.5 to 2 hours, turning occasionally and basting with the leftover marinade every 20 minutes, until they are tender and have a nice caramelized crust.

6. Allow the ribs to rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Storage

Store leftover ribs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Reheating

To reheat, wrap the ribs in foil and warm them in the oven at 300°F for about 15-20 minutes.
