Maple Gochujang Rotisserie Ribs
Let’s cook pork ribs differently, but with a ton of flavor. Adding some pork ribs on the rotisserie glazed with a Buffalo Trace infused BBQ sauce just might be our ticket! These Maple Gochujang Rotisserie Ribs are slam packed with insane deliciousness. Cooked on the rotisserie until tender then glazed with a sweet and spicy Maple Gochujang sauce, you are in for a treat when you make these. Just grab yourself a glass of Buffalo Trace, and let’s get to cooking! Sponsored by Buffalo Trace Prepping the Maple Gochujang Rotisserie Ribs We will start by pulling off the membrane of the ribs and squaring off any small or angled bones. This will leave us with the main 8-9 rib bones without the membrane (which is really chewy). Once that is all done, we can start to lather with yellow mustard and season with your favorite BBQ seasoning. Now, you will not taste the yellow mustard. It is just a binder so that the BBQ seasoning sticks to the meat. You are welcome to use something else if you can’t deal with mustard like oil, hot sauce or even soy sauce. All of these will work! Lastly, I am using my Maple Bourbon Seasoning from Spiceology to compliment the Buffalo Trace; but feel free to use any BBQ seasoning you like! Getting the ribs onto the rotisserie spit is actually not that difficult. Begin by skewering through the first & second bone’s meat. Then, making an “S” shape, we will skewer between bones until both pork ribs are on the spit. Once those are secure, then go back over with some extra seasoning and set it down until we are ready to cook.

We will make a two zone indirect fire around 275-300F for our Maple Gochujang Rotisserie Ribs. I want to create a medium-low temperature for the ribs so that they do not burn, but also so that they cook quickly. We will place the ribs onto the rotisserie and cook for about 3.5-4.5 hours. Make sure to watch out for any flare ups or issues. Try to move the coals as needed to prevent the ribs from burning! Once the ribs are around 180F internal and have ½” pull from the meat and bones, they are ready for glazing. The Maple Gochujang BBQ Sauce and Serving the Rotisserie Ribs Make the Maple Gochujang BBQ Sauce in a basting skillet over the heat until it has thickened. This BBQ sauce is sweet, spicy and with a little kick from the Buffalo Trace Bourbon! Glaze the outside of the rotisserie ribs until they are well coated, and then let cook for another 10 minutes. Once the ribs are caramelized, pull them off and let them cool. For more recipes with Buffalo Trace check out my Bourbon Bacon Pecan Salmon, Seared Duck Breast with Bourbon Cherry Sauce and Tomahawk Steak with French Onion Crust. We will carefully pull the ribs off the rotisserie, slice them up and serve with some Buffalo Trace Bourbon on the side! These are sweet, spicy and utterly delicious. A fantastic backyard recipe for family & friends. Cheers! For more delicious recipes, check out my cookbook Food X Fire! Needing more spice in your life? My spice line can help with that.
