Ribs finishing sauce

[Gbell1577]

Looking for a BBQ sauce combo to give my ribs that "wow" factor. I wanted to try the Blue Hogs combo, but I haven't been able to find it. Anyone have another recommendation? I've thought about mixing up some Uncle Henerys, has anyone ever used it for competition?

This is what I use as a rib glaze:

• 2 cups Dr. Pepper
• 4 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 4 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 8 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons of Liquid Smoke (by Colgin)
• Add some fresh garlic (to taste)
• Bring the liquid to a simmer and reduce by half or until of a thick syrup consistency. Brush the glaze onto the ribs. Place back on the grill, meat side up, just until the glaze caramelizes lightly.

If you're looking for a commercial sauce, I'd check out the Black Swan offerings.

I usually do not use a sauce in the cooking process but you should try this, it is always on the table when ribs are being served and it a big hit.
- one cup Kraft original BBQ sauce
- one cup ketchup
- one cup water
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Let all ingredients simmer ( do not let boil ) for about 1 1/2 hours. let cool and refrigerate over night before using.

I have been finishing my ribs with this recipe from BBQ pit boys. I love it.

Is using a small torch to carameliz the sauce illegal at
Most sanctioned competitions?

[Jon Solberg]

Not at a KBCS event. Rule 6

Not allowed to let unauthorized heat sources touch the meats!

Gbell1577 When ever i do this, the food always tastes like propane. Does that ever happen when you do it?

[Gbell1577]

I did it for the first time yesterday and it didn't taste like propane. Not sure if I want to continue to use this technique or not

Yeah thought it would be a great way to sear up some foods up. Everything I seared came out tasting like jet fuel. Not healthy I'm sure.
