Dr. Pepper ribs are not sweet for those if you that think the ribs will be too sweet. The Dr. Pepper soda will actually make the meat tender. In some instances the rob meat will fall right off the bone if you cook the ribs at a low temperature and covered.
To avoid the sweet taste that done delicate pallets might taste, you can balance your Dr. Pepper Ribs with a side dish such as broccoli or potato salad or macaroni salad. The potato salad that I make is simple, with cooked boiled potatoes, boiled eggs, mayonnaise, little bit of mustard, salt, pepper, celery and a bit of Pellegrino mineral water added after all the other ingredients are mixed in. Adding the Pellegrino mineral water after the potato salad ingredients are mixed helps to make sure that I do not add too much Pellegrino mineral water.
Back to the Ribs. Ribs are available as beef ribs or pork ribs. Then comes the decision of ribs with bone or boneless ribs. After the ribs type is decided on the road starts to making Dr. Pepper ribs. First thing is to brown the ribs on the stove in some olive oil. This is optional and if you are in a hurry you can skip browning the ribs on the stove. After the ribs are browned then I put the ribs in a pan and added some Dr. Pepper soda to cover the ribs 3/4 of the way. I put the covered pan with the ribs in the oven at about 275 to 300 degrees for about 3 hours to slow cook. I check my food in the oven regularly to ensure the food does not dry out and if it does then add more Dr. Pepper soda. Three hours later bam tender Dr. Pepper ribs are ready to get out the oven.
Crispy top on Dr. Pepper ribs can be easily done. If you like your ribs with a crispy top, after the ribs are ready, drain the ribs juice from the cooking container into a bowl for later use and put the ribs back into the oven and put the oven on Broiler for a couple of minutes to get the crispy top. The Dr. Pepper soda ribs sauce you drained from the ribs can be poured in with the crispy ribs or used as a dipping sauce.
