3. Add whiskey to the pan and flame to reduce. Add red wine and port and reduce to a glaze. Add broth and bring to a simmer, cooking 5 min.
4. Place ribs into a casserole dish, cover with wine and vegetable mixture, and bake covered at 325° F. for 45 min.
5. When the ribs are finished, strain, skim, and reduce broth by half. Reserve.
6. In saucepan, cover peas with 2 in. water. Add onion, carrot, and celery and bring to a simmer. Skim, add thyme, garlic, and salt; simmer approx. 25 min. until tender. Cool peas in the broth.
7. Remove tenderloins from marinade, season. Grill until medium rare, about 6 min. each side. Rest 10 min. before slicing.
8. To serve: Place peas in center of plate, and a serving of turnip-potato gratin to the back. Stack up a few ribs and top with thick chunks of tenderloin. Pour sauce around the peas.
