Ribswithcherrycolabarbecuesauce Recipes

Steps:

• Make the sauce: Combine the garlic, chili powder, cayenne, allspice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper in a bowl. Whisk the ketchup, 1 cup water, the vinegar, mustard, molasses, brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce in a separate bowl. Heat the vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic mixture and cook, stirring, until the oil turns brick red, about 1 minute. Add the ketchup mixture and bring to a gentle simmer; cook, whisking occasionally, 30 minutes.
• Make the ribs: Soak 1 heaping cup hickory, mesquite or apple-wood chips in water, at least 30 minutes. Prepare a grill for indirect cooking over medium-low heat (about 250 degrees F): On a charcoal grill, bank the coals to one side; on a gas grill, turn on only one side of the burners. Cover the grate on the cooler side of the grill with aluminum foil. Close the grill lid. Position the ribs on a cutting board, meat-side down. Slip a small knife between the bone and membrane, then gently pull off the membrane. Sprinkle the racks with 1 teaspoon each salt and black pepper on both sides. Drain the wood chips. For a charcoal grill, scatter the chips directly over the hot coals; for a gas grill, put the chips in a smoker box and position over direct heat. Put the ribs meat-side up on the foil on the cooler side of the grill. Close the grill lid; bring the temperature back up and cook the ribs, undisturbed, 3 hours. (For a charcoal grill, adjust the vents, or add more hot, ashed-over coals as needed to maintain consistent heat.) Remove the ribs and close the lid. Wrap each rack tightly in foil, then return to the cooler side of the grill, meat-side down; close the lid and grill 2 more hours. Remove the ribs and carefully unwrap. Return to the cooler side of the grill, meat-side up; cook, basting generously with the sauce halfway through, until the meat is tender, about 1 more hour. Remove the racks and let rest a few minutes before slicing. Serve with the remaining sauce. Photograph by Con Poulos

Steps:

• Make the barbecue sauce: Bring the cola to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Cook until reduced by about half, about 5 minutes. Add the ketchup, vinegar, brown sugar, mustard, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne and 2 teaspoons paprika. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
• Preheat a grill to medium and prepare for indirect grilling: On a charcoal grill, bank the coals to one side; on a gas grill, turn off half the burners. Combine 2 tablespoons salt, 1 tablespoon black pepper and the remaining 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon paprika in a bowl. Rub the salt mixture all over the ribs. Remove 1 cup of the barbecue sauce to a small bowl; brush over the ribs.
• Wrap each rack of ribs separately in foil. Put the racks, overlapping if necessary, on the cooler side of the grill (indirect heat). Cover and cook, flipping the ribs after 30 minutes, until just tender and beginning to pull away from the bones, about 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes.
• Remove the ribs from the grill and carefully unwrap; pour any juices into the pan with the remaining barbecue sauce. Bring the sauce to a simmer over medium heat and cook until thickened, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Increase the grill heat to medium high. Brush the ribs with some sauce from the pan and grill over direct heat, flipping every 5 minutes, until glossy and crisp at the edges, about 20 minutes. Transfer the ribs to a large cutting board and let rest 5 minutes. Cut the ribs between the bones and serve with the remaining barbecue sauce.
• If you're making the ribs on a charcoal grill, you'll need 3 to 4 pounds of charcoal. Add several new briquettes to the coals every 30 minutes to maintain the heat.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, combine All-Purpose Rub with 2 tablespoons teriyaki mix. Sprinkle seasoning over ribs and pat in.
• Place ribs in a shallow roasting pan. Tightly cover with foil. Bake in oven for 1 hour.
• While ribs are cooking, make glaze by combining glaze ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer 10 minutes and remove from heat.
• Remove ribs from oven and carefully drain fat from roasting pan. Generously brush with glaze and continue baking ribs, uncovered for 30 to 45 minutes more or until tender, turning and brushing occasionally with glaze. Remove from grill and cut into servings. Serve hot with glaze on the side.
• For Outdoor Grill:
• Set up grill for indirect cooking over medium heat. (No heat source under meat). Prepare ribs as directed. Place ribs in rib rack over drip pan on hot grill. Add a handful of hickory chips to hot coals or smoke box. Cover grill. Rotate ribs around rack every 30 minutes. After 1 hour, add 10 briquettes to each pile of coals and another handful of soaked hickory chips. Cook 2 to 2 1/2 hours. About 20 minutes before ribs are done, remove ribs from rib rack and lay meat side down on grill. Generously brush with glaze and pile ribs in center of grill over drip pan. Cover and cook 10 minutes. Turn ribs and brush on more glaze and re-pile. Cook an additional 10 minutes.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium low heat, combine the hot pepper sauce, lime juice, coffee, sugar, whiskey, honey, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste and tomato sauce. Mix together well and allow to simmer for 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Cut ribs into serving-size sections. Rub ribs with seasoned salt, garlic pepper and ginger. Place ribs in 15x10x1-inch pan, overlapping slightly. Bake uncovered about 1 hour 30 minutes or until tender.
• Meanwhile, in 2-quart saucepan, mix barbecue sauce, cola, preserves, mustard and buffalo wing sauce. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer uncovered 30 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until flavors are blended and sauce is slightly thickened.
• Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Cover and grill ribs over medium heat 10 to 15 minutes, turning and brushing occasionally with barbecue sauce mixture to glaze.
• Heat remaining barbecue sauce mixture to boiling; boil and stir 1 minute. Serve sauce with ribs.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, garlic, salt, pepper and, if desired, liquid smoke; rub over ribs., Layer ribs and onion in a greased 5- or 6-qt. slow cooker; pour cola over ribs. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or until ribs are tender. Drain liquid. Pour sauce over ribs and cook 1 hour longer.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cut spareribs into serving size portions, wrap in double thickness of foil, and bake for 1 1/2 hours. Unwrap, and drain drippings. (I usually freeze the drippings to use later in soups.) Place ribs in a large roasting pan.
• In a bowl, mix together brown sugar, ketchup, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, rum, chile sauce, garlic, mustard, and pepper. Coat ribs with sauce and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour, or refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat grill for medium heat. Position grate four inches above heat source.
• Brush grill grate with oil. Place ribs on grill, and cook for 30 minutes, basting with marinade.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and black pepper.
• Rub mixture onto rib pieces.
• Layer ribs and onions in a Dutch oven and pour cola over all.
• Cover and bake at 250°F for 4 hours.
• Remove pan from oven and pour off cola juices.
• Add BBQ sauce, cover and return to oven for 1 hour more.

Steps:

• Mix barbeque sauce, cola, preserves, mustard and hot sauce in a 2 quart saucepan.
• Heat to boiling; reduce heat to medium low and simmer covered for 30 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally until sauce is slightly thickened.
• Mix together the seasoned salt, pepper, garlic powder and ginger in a small bowl.
• Rub the spice mix into the ribs.
• Wrap ribs in heavy duty foil; grill over direct heat, turning occasionally for 30 minutes.
• Carefully open the foil and remove the ribs to the hot grill rack.
• Glaze the ribs with the sauce and continue cooking until done, watching carefully so that the ribs do not burn and turning to glaze both sides.
• Heat remaining sauce to a boil; boil and stir one minute.
• Serve sauce with ribs.

Steps:

• Place the wood chips in water to soak for an hour. If using a gas grill, soak 2/3 (4 cups) of the chips, otherwise soak all of them for use on a charcoal grill.
• Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs. This is easy to do by using a paper towel to get a good grip on the membrane at one end of rack with your fingers, and then simply peel it off. You may need to use a knife to get it started.
• Combine and mix mustard paint ingredients in a small bowl and slather it completely over both sides of the ribs.
• Mix the dry rub ingredients well with your fingers in a small bowl, then sprinkle onto both sides of the ribs.
• Prepare the grill for indirect cooking - for a gas grill only turn on the burner on one side turned and the grate above it removed. Preheat to 225-250°F.
• For a gas grill you will make two smoke pouches. Divide the soaked wood chips onto two seperate sheets of aluminum foil at one end of each one after squeezing out the excess water from the chips. Divide the dry chips and add them to each pile. Mix the dry and wet chips up a bit and fold over the other end of the foil to meet the end the chips are near, crimp along the edges to seal all around and poke holes into both sides with a fork. Repeat to create the other pouch. Place one of the smoke pouches directly over the hot burner. Close the lid and wait for smoke to start.
• For a charcoal gill, simply squeeze out the excess water and add half of them directly onto the coals after they have turned ash white.
• Place the ribs on the "cool" side of the grill and then close the lid. Cook for 3 hours. Replace the smoke pouch (or add the rest of the wood chips onto the fire bed for a charcoal grill) after it stops smoking, about an hour.
• After they've cooked for 3 hours, completely wrap up the ribs tightly in foil wrap and return them to the grill and close the lid to continue cooking this way for 2 hours. You may add some more dry rub at this point to intensify the flavor more.
• In the meantime, add sauce ingredients in a small saucepan and whisk. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and continue to simmer for 30 minutes. Allow to cool to room temperature.
• After the ribs have cooked for 2 hours wrapped in foil, remove them from the foil and return them to the grill. Be careful moving them because at this point the ribs are quite tender and can break.
• Continue to cook for 1 hour, hence the term '3-2-1' (hours for each step of cooking). Baste with the cola sauce during the last 20 minutes.
• Remove the ribs from the grill (they will have firmed up after this last hour of cooking in the open again and will be much easier to handle). Let them rest for 10 minutes before cutting up into individual ribs.

Steps:

• For the brine: Combine water, beer, brown sugar, salt, and lemon juice in large mixing bowl. Stir until salt and sugar dissolve. Pour mixture into plastic bag. Add ribs and seal bag, removing as much air as possible. Refrigerate overnight, turning occasionally.
• For the rub: Combine brown sugar, savory, garlic, paprika and cloves in a small mixing bowl and blend. Remove ribs from refrigerator and from brine. Pat dry with a paper towel. Brush the ribs with mustard to coat evenly. Sprinkle brown sugar mixture over ribs and let stand at room temperature.
• For the glaze: Pour cherry cola in cooking pot over medium-high heat. Cook until cola is reduced to 1 1/2 cups, about 45 minutes. Add jam, mustard, soy sauce, vinegar, and hot pepper sauce into the cooking pot and stir to combine. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until the mixture is reduced to 2 1/2 cups, stirring occasionally, about 35 minutes. Pour mixture into a bowl and take to grill for glazing.
• Preheat barbecue grill. If using charcoal grill, light briquettes in chimney. If using 3 burner gas grill, light 2 burners on opposite ends and leave middle burner off. If using 2 burner gas grill, light only 1 burner. Take a disposable pan and place it over the unlit burner. If using the charcoal grill place half on each side of the pan. The pan will be used to collect excess.
• Place ribs on rack over aluminum pan, meat side up. Cover grill and cook until ribs are tender and meat pulls away from bone by 1/4-inch, turning and rotating ribs every 1/2 hour. Before rotating brush the glaze generously on each side. Allow to cook for 1 1/2 hours. Remove from grill and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add onions; sauté until golden, about 7 minutes. Add garlic and stir 1 minute. Stir in chili sauce, preserves, cherry cola, brown sugar, and vinegar; bring to simmer, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer uncovered until reduced to 4 cups, stirring often to prevent scorching, about 50 minutes. Stir in 1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper and more hot pepper sauce, if desired. Transfer to bowl and cool completely. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 weeks ahead. Cover and refrigerate.

Steps:

• Pour enough Coca cola over the ribs. I use a vacuum sealer, to make it easier, but any way will do. Marinate for at least 24 hours. Remove the ribs from the marinade and apply more pork dry rub.
• Prepare your smoker and smoke the ribs at approx 225 degrees for 4 hours, basting hourly with Coke. Or, if just grilling, grill ribs over medium to low heat until a nice color develops. You can leaeve them on the grill, covered for approximately 4 hours until you reach your desired tenderness, or alternatively, wrap the ribs in foil and put in a 200 degree oven for about 4 hours or until desired tenderness is achieved.
• Meanwhile, put about 2 cups of Coca Cola in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce until you have about 1/2 cup or it is a syrupy consistency. Keep warm. Now it's money time. Remove the Coca Cola ribs, and brush on the syrup. Now, apply more rub to make a bbq pork ribs recipe that is sweet, and also savory. BBQ sauce is optional!

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a heavy, non-reactive saucepan and gradually bring to a boil over medium heat.
• Reduce the heat slightly to obtain a gentle simmer.
• Simmer the sauce until reduced by a quarter, 6-8 minutes.
• Use right away or transfer to a large jar, cover, cool to room temperature, and refrigerate.
