This recipe sounds goofy, but believe
me, it works. Follow these steps
for tender, juicy, delicious ribs.
Time Required:
Only 15 minutes for prep and 15 minutes to
grill, but requires overnight marinating
and at least four hours of unsupervised
cooking
Skill Required:
Minimal cooking skills needed
Ingredients:
Enough ribs to feed
your crowd
Canned
Coca-Cola (not diet)
Your
favorite BBQ Sauce
Garlic, salt, pepper,
onion powder
Steps:
Place the ribs in a baking dish and
pour Coca Cola in with the
ribs until they are covered.
Add BBQ sauce and spices.
Allow
the ribs to marinate overnight.
Slow
cook the ribs in the Coca Cola in an
oven at 200 degrees for at least 4
hours (up to 12 will make them very
tender). Make sure you cover the
ribs to avoid burning them. If
you're short on time, you can boil
the ribs for about 2 hours.
Remove
the ribs from the oven. Be careful,
the meat may fall off the bone.
You can refrigerate at this point if
you're making the ribs for a
next-day-tailgate.
Place your ribs on the
grill. Brush with BBQ sauce.
Sprinkle Old Bay or Cajun seasoning
over the ribs if desired (or mix the
spice with the sauce before brushing
for the best effect).
Serve and enjoy!!
If you don't have Coke
or want a different marinate, you can
use BBQ sauce, vegetable oil or light
olive oil, spices, and water. Be
sure the ribs are covered with liquid
while marinating. Cook them in
the marinate.
