How to Make Bourbon Rib Glaze

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup bourbon, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and 1 teaspoon smoked paprika.
  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly.
  3. Reduce heat to low and let the glaze simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before using.
  5. Brush ribs generously with glaze before grilling. Continue to baste ribs every 5-7 minutes, turning as needed, until cooked through and the glaze is caramelized.
  6. For chicken wings, brush liberally with glaze during the last 10 minutes of grilling, flipping occasionally for even cooking and glazing.
