Ingredients
  

  • 1 slab pork loin rib, frozen
  • 1/4 cup texas roadhouse rib seasoning
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1/2 cup liquid smoke
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh onion
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1/2 cup tomato paste
  • 1/2 cup white vinegar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 3/4 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon liquid smoke
  • 1 teaspoon whiskey
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground fresh black pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon paprika

Instructions
 

  • Score the frozen ribs several times on the back of the rack.[3]
  • Allow to thaw overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees Fahrenheit. Place a wire rack in a large shallow pan large enough to hold the rack of ribs.
  • Rub 1/8 cup of the Texas Roadhouse rib seasoning over each side of the ribs. Use additional seasoning if needed to cover each side of the ribs.
  • Combine the water and liquid smoke in the large pan. Mix well.
  • Place the ribs in the pan on top of the wire rack. Do not allow the ribs to touch the water-liquid smoke mixture. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil.
  • Bake for about five hours. Cook until the ribs nearly fall off the bone.
  • While the ribs are cooking, saute the onion in vegetable oil in a saucepan. When the onion is soft, add the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and simmer for an hour over low heat, until thickened.
  • Preheat a charcoal or gas grill.
  • Grill covered for about four minutes on each side. Brush with BBQ sauce, then flip to allow the sauce to caramelize. Repeat with the other side. Serve.
