How to Make Bbq Ribs With Cola Sauce

1. Prepare the dry rub by combining all dry rub ingredients in a bowl.
2. Pat the ribs dry and generously apply the dry rub to all surfaces.
3. Apply a thin layer of mustard to the ribs; this acts as a binder for the rub and adds moisture.
4. Wrap the ribs tightly in aluminum foil.
5. Cook the ribs in a 275°F (135°C) oven or smoker for 3 hours (the '3' in the 3-2-1 method).
6. Remove the ribs from the oven or smoker and unwrap them.
7. In a saucepan, combine the cola, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and liquid smoke. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
8. Pour the cola mixture over the ribs.
9. Wrap the ribs in foil again.
10. Return the ribs to the oven or smoker and cook for 2 hours (the '2' in the 3-2-1 method).
11. Remove the ribs from the foil and place them on a baking sheet.
12. Broil or grill the ribs for 1 hour (the '1' in the 3-2-1 method), basting with the remaining cola mixture every 15 minutes.
13. If using additional BBQ sauce, baste the ribs generously during the last 15 minutes of broiling/grilling.
14. Remove the ribs from the oven/smoker, let them rest for 10-15 minutes, then slice and serve.
