FTR, I really hated the way the bourbon smelled. In fact, it nearly turned my stomach. I normally pour about a cup of cheap red wine in with a roast, but I was out, so I used what Jeff had in his cabinet for barbecue sauces. It still tasted good, though, and no one at the table complained or guessed something was different.

And of course, aaaaaaall of the alcohol "cooks away".
