Slow Cooked Cola Ribs

My slow cooker feels neglected recently. So I put him to work today and created this lovely summer dish. Can do the last part on the BBQ instead on the grill. If you want to feed more people then get a bigger rack and make more marinade.

Serves 2

Rack of Ribs (Went to my local butcher and I go for about 3 per person, as local butchers have a lot of meat on them)

650ml Pork Stock

250ml Coca-Cola 

Chinese 5 Spice Powder

Marinade

4 tbsp Tomato Sauce

1 tbsp Soy Sauce

1 tsp Chinese 5 Spice Powder

1 tbsp Honey

1 Garlic Clove

Salt and Pepper

1. Rub both sides of the ribs with the spice powder. Then put Cola and stock in the pan. It needs to cover the ribs. If the ribs aren't submerged then top with more cola, stock or water. Cook on low for 6-7 hours. 

2. For the marinade mix all the ingredients with 2 tbsp of the stock/mixture in the slow cooker. Take the ribs out,  meat side up and put on a tray and lather with 3/4 of the marinade on the ribs. Then put under a grill for 10 minutes. Flip over then use the rest of the marinade and grill for 5 minutes. 

Serve with salad, wedges/chips, sweetcorn or coleslaw
