Roxy's rib glaze

Heres a rib glaze that I have been working on that I hope you will give a try. I am liking it a lot and find it a nice change from dry or sauced ribs.

1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup BBQ sauce
1/4 cup apple juice
1/8 cup cider vinegar
1/8 cup bourbon

Combine ingredients and wisk together well. Paint on ribs every 10 to 15 minutes during the last hour of cooking for a nice shiny glaze.

Roxy's stuffed taters

2 large baking potatoes
1 red pepper
1 tsp. minced garlic
1/4 cup chopped smoked brisket (optional)
6 slices of bacon thinly sliced and cooked till crisp
3 green onions, chopped
3/4 cup cheddar cheese, grated
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup mayo (hellmanns)
2 tbsp chopped green olives
1 tbsp BBQ sauce
1 tsp cajun seasoning
1 tsp cracked black pepper
1 tsp kosher salt

Preheat oven to 350

- Cut potato in half length wise and brush with oil, place potatoes cut side down on a roasting pan.
- Cut red pepper in half, top to bottom, remove seeds and membrane and place on roasting pan with potatoes. Roast for about 1 hour or until potatoes are tender. When red pepper is tender, remove from oven and place in a plastic bag to steam for 20 minutes. When potatoes are done, remove from oven and allow to cool for 20 minutes.
- While potatoes and peppers are cooking, render bacon and allow to cool.
- Using a sharp knife, cut around top edge of potato skin so the insides can be removed. Scoop out potato and place in a mixing bowl. With the side of a spoon work over potatoes so there are no large chunks.
- Remove the skin from the peppers and chop, add to potatoes.
- Add remaining ingredients and incorporate.
- Add filling to the potato skins and pile high.
- Top with some fresh ground pepper and kosher salt.
- Bake for 35 - 40 minutes until topping is nicely browned.

Roxy,
Just wanted to let you know i tried your rib glaze this weekend and it was wonderful. Thanks for being so generous and sharing the recipe

Glad you like it.

I sure dont believe in keeping secrets when it comes to sauces and stuff, anything to help folks make their BBQ'in more fun is fine by me.

I have some competition stuff that I dont share. As of yet anyways. Wink

Great glaze Roxy. I tried my hand at smoking up some spare ribs this weekend for the first time. I found a great rub on this site and finished them off with your glaze. Best ribs that I have tasted. Thanks for sharing that!!!

Looks great! Gonna try it out. Question though, when you say BBQ Sauce, have you found a particular that works well? Seems like a sweet sauce might make be pretty sweet with the honey. I use Sweet Baby Rays alot so I don't want to overdo it.

Well I leave the type of sauce up to you. I am amazed at how good this is with any of the sauces I have tried it with.

There is not a thick sauce on the meat but what is applied does soak in at first and then you get a nice thinner layer of sauce.
