About
Sticky pork ribs, sweet citrusy onion marmalade, and a glass of Shiraz! Great for a spring celebration or an everyday weeknight meal.
I like trying different Bar-B-Q sauces. Just changing a few ingredients alters the taste, For example, maple syrup vs blackberry jam vs brown sugar for sweetness. Jack Daniels, Bourbon, Cognac, or beer. I use different types of vinegar, including my own herbal varieties. Raspberry adds another great layer of flavor in this sauce. And sage lends its earthy taste to the pork and marmalade.
I love the combination of orange with bar-b-q and rosemary with its pine and woodsy fragrance marries well with citrus. Rather than just add chopped onion to the meat I decided to use it with mushrooms as a veggie side!
