Time 55m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 -4 lbs ribs
2 cups cola
4 tablespoons soft dark brown sugar
4 tablespoons tomato ketchup
4 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons rum
tomato ketchup, to serve

Steps:

  • Lay the ribs in a pan of cold water, place on the stovetop and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer the ribs for about 30 mins, or until they are tender.
  • Drain the ribs, rinse them under cold running water to cool quickly, then drain well and place in a bowl.
  • To make the marinade, put all the ingredients except the rum in a saucepan, place on a low heat and stir until the sugar has melted. Increase the heat and bring the sauce up to a simmer and cook until the volume has reduced by about half. Remove the pan from the heat, stir in the rum, and leave the sauce to cool.
  • Pour the cold sauce over the ribs and stir them to ensure they are well coated. Cover the bowl and leave to marinate overnight (or a couple of days) stirring the ribs a couple of times if possible.
  • Lift the ribs out of the marinade and cook them on a hot grill for 10-15 mins, turning them occasionally until they are heated through.
  • Any extra marinade can be brushed over the ribs during cooking.
  • Serve immediately with tomato ketchup as a dipping sauce.
