Steps:
- Smash the garlic cloves, sprinkle with a generous pinch of salt, and, with the flat side of a large knife, mash and smear mixture to a coarse paste.
- Stir garlic paste, the 1/4 teaspoon salt, cola, ketchup, vinegar, Worcestershire, chili powder, 1 teaspoon black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce, and allspice together in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until thickened, about 45 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, stir in the lime juice, and season with black pepper and hot sauce, to taste.

There are lots of ways to work this magic-thick, thin, and in-between. Concocting a signature sauce is compulsory in some barbecue circles. Start with this basic riff and play with variations to suit your style.

COLA BARBECUE RIBS

Time 2h20m
Yield 8 to 10 servings
Number Of Ingredients 12
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.
Tips:
- Choose the right cola. Not all colas are created equal. For the best flavor, use a cola that is not too sweet, such as Coca-Cola or Pepsi.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. The recipe calls for chili powder, cumin, and cayenne pepper, but you can add other spices to taste. For example, try adding a teaspoon of smoked paprika or a pinch of cinnamon.
- Let the sauce simmer for a while. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes, or up to an hour.
- Taste the sauce as you go. Adjust the seasonings to taste. You may want to add more sugar or vinegar, depending on your personal preference.
- Use the sauce on your favorite foods. Spicy cola barbecue sauce is great on chicken, pork, beef, and fish. It can also be used as a dipping sauce for fries or onion rings.
Conclusion:
Spicy cola barbecue sauce is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used on a variety of foods. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a new barbecue sauce to try, give this recipe a try.
