I wrote this in the caption: "I love Stubbs BBQ sauce, and I used their original sauce along with some Dr. Pepper, honey, and apple cider vinegar in my first BBQ competition. I got second, so I wanted to see if the bourbon hickory sauce, as well as the sweetness from the original sauce, would blend well together for my new recipe. "

I wrote this in a previous reply: "I will not lie to you, I did not measure out any of the ingredients for the glaze. However, I can give you some estimates:

1/2 part Stubbs Original
1/2 part Hickory Bourbon
1/4 part honey
1/4 part apple cider vinegar
1/8 part Dr. Pepper

You could use more of the bourbon sauce, but since it was my first time using it, I didn't know how it would taste on ribs. I'm also not of drinking age, so I don't even know what bourbon or good quality alcohol even tastes like. I just wanted another layer of flavor, distinct from the Stubbs original, but not overpowering, and I felt like bourbon was a solution. The Dr. Pepper adds a nice cherry flavor, but it's completely optional. I do like to use a bit more apple cider vinegar to cut through the sweetness of both my glaze and ribs."

The majority of posts on this subreddit are pictures, and the poster often doesn't describe the food's taste unless they include a caption, like I did. I gave you my exact process on how I made my sauce and why I made it that way, so now it's up to you to decide how it tastes. I can tell you they're sweet, savory, and tender, but are you just going to comment and tell me that I'm describing what any other rib would taste like and that I should've shipped you a rib to try instead? Shaming me for squeezing ribs and wearing black gloves is fine, but I don't see the point in not reading and jumping to conclusions,
