6 12 servings
- Serves:
- 6
ingredients
- 4 (12 ounce) cans cherry cola (flat)
- 2 cups cherry jam or 2 cups preserves
- 2⁄3 cup dijon horseradish mustard
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons malt vinegar or 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce
- salt
- pepper
- 7 1⁄4 - 7 1⁄2 lbs pork spareribs, well-trimmed
directions
- Boil flat cherry soda in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat until reduced to 1 1/2 cups, takes about 45 minutes. Stir in next 5 ingredients. Reduce heat to medium and then simmer and stir occasionally until mixture is reduced to 2 1/2 cups, about 35 minutes. Transfer this glaze to a large bowl for coating ribs, or if making ahead, transfer to a seal-able container.
- Position oven racks in top and bottom thirds of oven, preheat to 325 degrees F. Sprinkle and rub ribs with salt and pepper. Wrap each rib rack tightly in foil, into a sealed packet. Divide foil packets between 2 rimmed baking sheets. Bake one set on top and the other on the bottom rack of oven until ribs are very tender, switching positions of baking sheets after one hour, half way through. Bake for another hour. Cool ribs slightly until you can handle the foil, pour off any fat.
- Prepare barbecue (medium-low heat). Cut each rib between bones into individual ribs. Set aside 1 cup glaze. Add ribs to bowl with remaining glaze and toss to coat. Grill ribs until brown and glazed, turning to prevent burning, about 5 minutes total. Serve, passing reserved glaze separately.

I'm married with 2 young children. Like lots of other folks, after getting married, I finally started learning how to cook when we got tired of take-out food. Watching Foodnetwork taught me lots of skills as well as inspired me to try. I haven't followed the shows much nowadays, but years ago my favorite chefs on FoodNetwork were Giada DeLaurentis, Ina Garten, Bobby Flay, Alton Brown, and Paula Deen. I also watched 30 minute meals with Rachel Ray but never could make my meals in 30 minutes with her recipes! ;0)
My pet peeves are when people refuse to try something different, or after they've had one bad experience with a certain ingredient or food then they will never want to taste anything related or with it.
