1 hr

Whisk ketchup with vinegar, molasses, dry mustard, chile powder, cumin, oregano, bourbon or whiskey (optional), and pepper.
Simmer 20-30 mintutes, stirring often.
Add salt and tobasco to taste.
Brush on meat the last 5 minutes of grill time.
Set up the grill for indirect heat, medium temperature. Grill the meat, rib side down, until the bones protrude slightly from the meat, about 2 hours (may take more or less time, depending on rib thickness and grill temperature).
Brush with barbeque sauce during the last 15-20 minutes of grilling so that the sauce carmelizes onto the ribs.
Serve extra sauce on the side.
Sauce can be covered and refrigerated for up to 2 weeks. May also be frozen.
