How to Make Cherry Cola Glazed Ribs
First, Bake the Ribs
1. Trim the ribs by removing the silver skin on the back and removing any excess fat. (I hate this process)
2. Place each rack on a large sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
3. Sprinkle with salt and fresh ground pepper.
4. Tightly seal the aluminum foil around the ribs.
5. Place on a baking sheet and put it into a preheated 325 F degree oven.
6. Bake for 2 hours or until meat is tender. *During this baking time is typically when I make the glaze for the cherry Coke ribs.

7. Remove the ribs from the oven and carefully unwrap the foil.
Next, Grill the Ribs
8. I like to cut the large racks in half. It just makes it easier to handle on the grill.
9. Brush the ribs with glaze on both sides.
10. Place on a hot grill.
11. Grill until glazed and brown for about 5 minutes per side.
12. I like to brush more glaze over the ribs each time I turn them.
13. Watch them close. The glaze is loaded with sugar that can burn.

15. Slice in between each individual rib.

How to Make the Cherry Cola Glaze
1. While the ribs are baking prepare the cherry cola BBQ sauce.
2. Pour the flat cola into a large heavy saucepan.
3. Bring to a boil and let simmer for about 45 minutes or until reduced to 2 cups. You can eyeball it or to be sure pour the reduced cola into a measuring cup to be certain.
4. Pour the reduced cola back into the pan.
5. Add cherry preserves, 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar.
6. If you use 2/3 cup spicy brown mustard the glaze will have a good kick to it.
7. Whisk to blend.
8. Bring to a slow simmer and cook until thick and reduced to about 2 1/2 – 3 cups.
9. This can be made a few days in advance and refrigerated until ready to use.
10. Now that’s a plus. Note: To soften the heat you can add equal parts of spicy brown and Dijon.

Serve cherry Coca Cola ribs with extra sauce. You’ll suck the bones dry.
