St. Louis Style Ribs with Whisky BBQ Sauce

In a pot, combine the olive oil and chopped onions and cook, stirring, over high heat until they are well browned.

Add the whisky and burn off the alcohol, cooking until flame goes out.

Add the BBQ sauce. Mix well and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat and let simmer 5 minutes. Set aside.

Meanwhile, boil the ribs with the remaining ingredients in salted water for 45 minutes. Gently remove ribs and let cool.

Preheat grill to medium.

Grill the ribs turning them and brushing them with the sauce frequently for about 15 minutes, or until nicely caramelized.
