ingredients

• 5 lbs pork spareribs

• Sauce

• 1⁄3 cup honey
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 onion, peeled and sliced
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 4 cups chicken stock (homemade or canned)
• 1⁄2 cup demi-glace (or concentrated chicken broth)
• 1 cup Irish whiskey
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tablespoons ketchup

directions

1. Spareribs:

2. Put ribs in a large pot or Dutch oven and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to simmer. Cook until fork-tender, about 1 hour, skimming water occasionally to remove foam. Transfer to a large baking pan. Preheat oven to 350°.

3. Sauce:

4. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, cook onion and garlic in oil until soft, about 3 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients except demi-glace or concentrated chicken broth and bring to a boil. Cook until sauce reduces by half, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the demi-glace or concentrated chicken broth.

5. Baking:

6. Pour half the sauce over the ribs and bake, turning once, until the ribs begin to brown, 30 to 40 minutes. Serve 4 or more ribs per person with remaining sauce. Serves 4 to 6.

I'm rating this without stars for the moment because DH 's wee dram before bed extended the bottle of Tullimore Dew that I thought I had hidden away for recipes (er wrong, obviously not hidden nearly well enough!) and I only had bearly 1/3 Cup left for this recipe. The ribs cooked up wonderfully but I'm sure that the taste would have been even better with the other 2/3rds of the whisky in, so it's on the shopping list and I will review this better once I have made it again.
