It will taste vile, but be entertaining nonetheless.

Gammon joint cooked in Coke, covered in mustard and then roasted, is superb.

that's where I got the idea from
I'm thinking cook the ribs in coke, then smother in chipotle tabasco and bbq

That will be utterly superb.

meat?
sounds like a good way to ruin good coke, if you ask me.

which i am aware that you did not.

question is though
do I cook the ribs in coke in the oven, or simmer them in a pan on the hob. I'm leaning towards oven, but that's only because that's where my experience lies.
(, Wed 20 Apr 2011, 12:52, Reply)
no, boil them first. much more tender.

(, Wed 20 Apr 2011, 12:54, Reply)
boil them in the coke for a few hours
then bbq yeah?
(, Wed 20 Apr 2011, 12:56, Reply)
You only need about half an hour in water for ribs
so coke should be the same.

I wonder what would happen if you used *spit* diet coke? it'd be much less likely to burn...
(, Wed 20 Apr 2011, 12:58, Reply)
I wouldn't want to risk it being shit
because of the sweeteners, so will go with regular coke.

I have basically zero experience with boiling meat. I'm thinking to avoid burning sugar that I'd be better off going with not quite boiling, and for longer. What do you reckon?
(, Wed 20 Apr 2011, 12:59, Reply)
a very gentle simmer should do it.
just keep checking it.

I boil ribs just in water and then make a sticky thai glaze for them for the bbq and it's absolutely lovely. But I'm liking your plan muchly, let me know how it goes?
(, Wed 20 Apr 2011, 13:02, Reply)
nice one.
if it's good I'll let the world know.
(, Wed 20 Apr 2011, 13:04, Reply)
oh, fuck it, I didn't read that properly
I'd do it on the hob. The sugar will caramalize and burn and if you aren't stirring it all the time the pan will be ruined and it'll tase burnt, so the oven is not so good as you aren't stirring it all the time.
(, Wed 20 Apr 2011, 12:57, Reply)
that was kind of what I was thinking

I guess you could make a tempora batter with coke instead of sparkling water.
Oh, oh my, oh my goodness !
(, Wed 20 Apr 2011, 13:03, Reply)
that could be absolutely awesome
could be shit too, but I'm thinking use it for an apple fritter or something.
(, Wed 20 Apr 2011, 13:06, Reply)
oh man, that does sound good.

(, Wed 20 Apr 2011, 13:22, Reply)
how about do both - have you a biggish pan that'll fit in the oven?
... the benefit being you can do a very long slow braise if you want.

Ace !
