Ribs With Cherry Cola Barbecue Sauce image

Cooking the ribs in foil assures that your meat will be well cooked without the flare-ups that causes burning so easily when grilling fatty meats like ribs. Be careful when removing the meat from the foil. Often there will be a puddle of melted fat in the foil that can cause serious burns if you spill it on yourself. Take your time and use caution.

COLA BARBECUE RIBS



Cola Barbecue Ribs image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 2h20m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 20-ounce bottle cola
2 cups ketchup
2/3 cup apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup lightly packed dark brown sugar
1/3 cup Dijon mustard
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons sweet paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
5 racks baby back ribs (8 to 10 pounds total), membranes removed
Vegetable oil, for the grill

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.

CHERRY COLA BARBECUE SAUCE

Provided by Rick Rodgers

Categories     Sauce     Onion     Tomato     Fourth of July     Quick & Easy     Backyard BBQ     Vinegar     Cherry     Jam or Jelly     Simmer     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes about 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 cups chopped onions
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 12-ounce bottles (ketchup-style) chili sauce
1 12- to 13-ounce jar cherry preserves or jam
1 cup cherry cola (regular, not diet)
1/3 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon (or more) hot pepper sauce

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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ribs: Baby back ribs are the most popular choice for this recipe, but you can also use spare ribs or country-style ribs. Baby back ribs are leaner and cook more quickly, while spare ribs and country-style ribs have more meat and a richer flavor.
  • Make sure the ribs are properly trimmed: Remove any excess fat or connective tissue from the ribs before cooking. This will help the ribs cook evenly and prevent them from becoming tough.
  • Use a good quality cherry cola: The cherry cola is a key ingredient in this recipe, so make sure you use a good quality one. A good cherry cola will have a strong cherry flavor and a slightly tart finish.
  • Cook the ribs low and slow: The best way to cook ribs is low and slow. This will help the ribs become tender and fall off the bone. Cook the ribs for at least 2 hours, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Baste the ribs frequently: Basting the ribs with the cherry cola barbecue sauce will help keep them moist and flavorful. Baste the ribs every 30 minutes or so.
  • Let the ribs rest before serving: Once the ribs are cooked, let them rest for 10-15 minutes before serving. This will help the ribs retain their juices and make them easier to handle.

Conclusion:

These cherry cola barbecue ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The ribs are tender and fall off the bone, and the cherry cola barbecue sauce is sweet, tangy, and flavorful. Whether you are serving them at a backyard barbecue or a family dinner, these ribs are sure to be a hit.
