2 racks baby back ribs1 two litre bottle of Dr. PepperSalt and pepper to taste1 tbsp chili powder1 cup water1/2 tbsp canola oil1/2 onion minced1 garlic clove minced1/2 cup ketchup1 tbsp Worchestershire sauce1 tbsp apple cider vinegar1/8 tsp cayenne pepperApple juice in a spray bottle
Place ribs in a dish large enough to hold them comfortably. Pour in enough soda to cover, saving 1/2 cup for the barbecue sauce. Add 1/4 cup salt and soak for at least 2 hours or overnight in the fridge.
Prepare grill. Remove the ribs from the liquid and pat dry; discard liquid. Sprinkle ribs with the chili powder and place on the grill. Periodically spritz the ribs with apple juice to keep them moist. Cook until the meat is tender and nearly falling off the bone.
BBQ sauce
While ribs are cooking, heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Saute the oinion and garlic until soft, then add the ketchup, Worcestershire, vinegar, cayenne, and reserved 1/2 cup soda. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, until thickened.
Brush the ribs with the barbecue sauce and grill for 10 to 15 minutes, rib side down on a cooler part of the grates. Flip and cook the other side until lightly charred. Remove from the grill and brush with more sauce and serve.
Makes 4 servings and happy children.
