Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

These spareribs are slow cooked until they are wonderfully tender. The glaze is a mixture of ketchup and cola which gives them a tang with a hint of sweetness. Pickling spices in the cooking liquid add additional flavor to the meat.

6 pounds pork spareribs, separated
water to cover meat
4 teaspoons pickling spice
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup cola
Place ribs in crock pot and pour in enough water to cover. Add pickling spice and salt. Cook on low for 6 hours or until tender.
Discard liquid and place ribs in shallow pan. Mix brown sugar and dry mustard together and sprinkle over ribs. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
Mix ketchup and cola together and spread over ribs. Grill or broil until ribs are browned.

If you're a fan of the menu at this American chain of restaurants which serves a variety of foods such as burgers, steaks, pasta, and seafood then you'll love this collection of copycat recipes.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

I love how tender the ribs get when slow simmered in the crock pot. The pickling spice adds great flavor to the cooking liquid. The cola glaze is sweet without being too overpowering. These were wonderfully addicting!
