Spare ribs

Ingredients for 3 servings:

• 1 kg spare ribs, thin
• 750 ml Coke
• 200 ml tomato ketchup
• 3 tbsp tomato paste
• 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tbsp Tabasco
• 4 tbsp oil
• 4 tbsp balsamic cream, light
• 1 thick garlic clove(s)
• 2 tbsp mustard
• ½ tsp curry powder
• ½ tsp pepper
• ½ tsp paprika powder, hot
• ½ tsp cumin powder
• 1 tbsp sugar

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Rest time approx. 12 hours; Cooking/baking time approx. 2 hours; Total time approx. 14 hours 30 minutes

For the marinade, crush the garlic clove and add it to a saucepan with 200 ml of cola and all the other ingredients. Mix well and bring to a boil. Simmer for about 20 minutes at low heat. Place the ribs in a plastic bag and add the marinade. Tie the bag shut and mix everything well. Leave to marinate in the refrigerator overnight. The next day, place the ribs in a rib rack and grill for about 1 hour in a preheated gas grill at around 120°C using indirect heat. Then place the ribs and the rib rack in a roasting pan. Add the rest of the cola and finish grilling everything with the lid closed at 120°C using indirect heat for about 1 hour. Instead of cola, you can also use malt beer, beer, wine or apple spritzer. This is a recipe for a gas grill, but it will probably work just as well in the oven.
