SUNNY'S COLA-GLAZED SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• For the sauce: In a large pot on medium high heat add the oil and onions. Season with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, while stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the paprika, garlic and whole sprigs of thyme. Stir until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Add the brown sugar, ketchup, vinegar, mustard and tomatoes and stir to combine. Add the cola and scrape the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon to remove any bits that are stuck. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens to slightly thinner than the consistency of ketchup, about 45 minutes.
• For ribs: Heat half of a grill to 425 degrees F. Sprinkle the ribs all over with salt and pepper. With the grill lid open, place the ribs over the direct heat side of the grill and grill to get char marks on all sides, turning and flipping the ribs as needed. Lower the heat to 225 to 250 degrees F and move the ribs to the indirect side of the grill and baste with the some of the sauce. Cover and cook, quickly basting and recovering every 30 minutes, until the meat is tender, 2 to 4 hours depending on the size of the ribs, or until the internal temperature is 200 degrees F.

• In a large stock pot (15 qt is best), add the pineapple skin slices, 1 cup brown sugar,2 cups BBQ sauce, the orange slices, dash of liquid smoke, and the rib sections.
• Add enough water to the pot to cover the ribs completely, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer ribs for 40 minutes. Don't overcook them.
• Remove ribs from pot and set aside to cool.
• While ribs cool, make a rub from the orange zest, remaining brown sugar, chili powder, garlic powder, and salt and pepper to taste.
• When ribs are cool enough to handle, apply rub to both sides of meat. Place ribs in a plastic freezer bag, and allow to marinate for 3 or 4 hours (or longer if you prefer).
• After marinating time, add 1 cup of BBQ sauce to the bag and coat ribs. Allow them to come to room temperature in the bag.
• In the mean time, slice the remaining pineapple into 1/2" thick rings and brush with BBQ sauce. I occasionally add a tsp of honey to the BBQ sauce for grilling --
• Heat BBQ grill to 300 degrees. Place ribs on grill, and brush with BBQ sauce, turning frequently and basting with sauce, about 20 minutes, being careful not to let sauce burn. Reduce heat if necessary.
• During the last 8 minutes of cooking, add the pineapple slices to the grill, turning once and allowing them to carmelize and brown with grill marks.
• Remove ribs and pineapple to a serving platter and enjoy.
