Ingredients
- 3 pounds pork ribs St. Louis Style or Baby Back, up to 5 pounds
- 2 cups BBQ sauce try this homemade version!
- 6 ounces Dr. Pepper or Coke, half of a can.
- 3 tablespoons BBQ dry rub try this homemade version!
Instructions
For the Dutch Oven
- Begin heating coals.
- Season ribs thoroughly with sweet rub.
- Slice into 3-4 rib portions.
- Pour ¼ cup BBQ sauce in the bottom of a deep 12-inch dutch oven. The ribs will not fit in a shallow dutch oven.
- Layer the rib portions, the BBQ sauce, and the soda, ending with BBQ sauce on the top layer.
- Cover with lid.
- Place about 20 coals on top and 20 coals underneath the dutch oven.
- Cook for about 1 hour to 1 ½ hours, checking your heat after 15 and 30 minutes to make adjustments.
For the Oven
- Preheat oven to 300ºF
- Prepare ribs in dutch oven as directed above.
- Bake in the oven until the meat starts to pull away from the bone and the ribs are tender, about 3 hour to 3 ½ hours.

Notes
- If you want a smoky flavor, you can add a bit of liquid smoke to the sauce or use smoked paprika.
- The rib tips can also be cooked in the oven at 325°F for a similar result if you'd rather not use the stovetop.
- For a deeper flavor, sear the ribs in the Dutch oven before braising. Heat the Dutch oven over medium-high heat with a little oil (vegetable oil, olive oil, or canola oil) and brown the ribs on all sides. This caramelization creates a richer flavor.
- Use a combination of liquids to braise the ribs: A mix of broth (beef, chicken, or vegetable), a little apple cider vinegar (for acidity), and your favorite BBQ sauce or tomato paste will create a flavorful base for braising.
