Ingredients for Adam S Ribs

  • Country Style Pork Ribs
  • Dr. Pepper Cola
  • Garlic Cloves
  • 1 tablespoon liquid smoke
  • 1 medium chopped onion
  • Barbecue Sauce

How to Make Adam S Ribs

  1. Place ribs in a large stockpot. Add 2 liters of your favorite soda pop (cola, Dr. Pepper, etc.)
  2. Generously pepper the ribs to coat them evenly.
  3. Add 4 cloves of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of liquid smoke, and 1 medium chopped onion to the stockpot.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until the ribs are incredibly tender (approximately 90-120 minutes).
  5. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the tender ribs in a baking pan.
  6. Pour your favorite BBQ sauce (approximately 1 cup) over the ribs, ensuring they're evenly coated.
  7. Bake for 30-45 minutes, or until the sauce has caramelized and the ribs are glistening. Alternatively, grill the ribs over medium heat for 20-30 minutes, basting frequently with BBQ sauce.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
