Ingredients

Ribs:

2 Racks of Ribs
1 cup Maple Bourbon Rub
¼ cup FYR BLK Hot Sauce

Crutch:

6 tbsp Unsalted Butter
1 cup HNY FYR BBQ Sauce
3 tbsp Brown Sugar
3 tbsp Sliced Jalapenos
2 tbsp Minced Garlic
1.5 tbsp Honey

Instructions

Begin by removing the membrane on the back of the pork ribs.
Cut the ribs into singles then slather in FYR BLK Hot Sauce. Season generously with my Maple Bourbon Rub and set to the side.
Preheat your smoke for 250F cooking indirectly. Add wood chips or wood chunks if you desire.
Add the ribs to cook indirectly until 165F internal (about 1.5 hours).
Once they hit temperature, add to a foil bin with your Pendleton Whisky and all the ingredients for the crutch (including my new HNY FYR BBQ Sauce).
Cover in foil and place back on the smoker for one more hour.
After your hour, uncover the ribs and let cook for another 30 minutes to caramelize. Once good, pull off and let cool for 10 minutes.
Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Simple Honey Slaw

Ribs aren't the only thing that benefit from hot sauce and honey — slaw does too! To make a simple side for these honey fire party ribs, combine a bag of cole slaw mix (or half a head of red cabbage, shredded, plus a couple grated carrots) with three thinly sliced scallions, the juice from one lime and about a teaspoon of salt. Then, toss that veggie mixture together. Let it sit for about five minutes. Finally, add a dollop or two of mayo, a few dashes of hot sauce, a teaspoon of honey and a handful of chopped cilantro. Serve and enjoy with these ribs!
