Ingredients

  • 1 ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp ground black pepper
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp ground cloves
  • 3 ½ lbs pork country-style ribs
  • 4 cups root beer not diet
  • cup barbecue sauce
  • 2 Tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 Tbsp white vinegar
  • 2 tsp Dijon style mustard
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • In a small bowl, combine the salt, cumin, paprika, ground pepper, cinnamon and cloves. Rub all over the ribs, coating all sides.
  • Place ribs, bone side up, in a greased shallow roasting pan. Bake uncovered for 75 minutes; drain.
  • When the ribs have about 30 minutes left of baking time, bring the root beer to boiling in a large saucepan. Boil gently for about 20-25 minutes, or until it is reduced to about 1 1/4 cups. Remove from heat. Stir in barbecue sauce, tomato paste, vinegar, Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Return mixture to boiling and boil gently for about 1 minute. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Turn the drained ribs, meaty side up. Spoon about half of the root beer sauce over the ribs. Bake for about 45 minutes more, basting once or twice with the remaining sauce. Spoon the cooked sauce from the bottom of the pan over the ribs to serve.
