Big Apple BBQ Event In NYC with Small Competition Need HELP

[BlazinSS934]

So to make a long story short, I need help picking out a secret/special ingredient. Jim Beam and the Terry Farrell Firefighters Fund are hosting a small comp. for a few firehouse cooks. First place is 15 tickets to the Jim Beam VIP SkyBox at yankee stadium all inclusive. So I really would like to win .

They supply the ribs, I dont know the cut and all other ingredients. we get to take one ingredient from home. what should i do?

should i make the sauce at home and make a rub recipe at the comp from their pantry or should I get me some plowboy's and take that with me as the special ingredient?

I need some ideas on a sauce, it must include Jim Beam in it or I can spray the ribs down every hour with some Beam during the cook?

Just lookin for ideas

Thanks

Sal

not sure who the judges are but I'd get a bottle of Blues Hog sauce as the secret ingredient for ribs.. make a simple rub from their pantry..

don't overdo the Jim Beam... just a light splash in the sauce or a quick spray... too much alcohol in the sauce will kill it.

Bourbon and cherry sauce.
