Pork Ribs With Bourbon Whiskey Barbecue Sauce – Recipe

Summertime calls for outdoor cooking/grilling and enjoying fun activities with family and friends.

You don’t have to wait for a special holiday or a celebration, to have a barbecue.  You do it just because you feel like taking advantage of the warm weather and cooking outdoors.  Not to mention give your husband a chance to show off his grilling skills while you are relaxing with a nice cold drink and socializing (which most likely does not happen until you set everything up for him:-).

My son-in-law prepared these finger-licking barbecue ribs which we all enjoyed very much, so he let me share his recipe on my blog.
