Sounds bad, tastes good.
 
Was feeling experimental this weekend. Probably re-invented the wheel
but....
Cola-Mustard marinade/mop/sauce.
Reduced 2 liters of Coke to about 1.5 cups along with some onion, dried
red pepper flakes, and garlic.
Strained and mixed with same amount of prepared yellow mustard and 1 can
of chapotle in adobe sauce. (pureed)
Marinated some baby backs approx. 18 hours then used the rest as a mop.
My wife gives if an 9 of 10 on the smacky scale....I'd say 6...bit too
sweet for me.
Worth playing with.

I congratulate your inventive streak. I just pray you never get your hands
on some nitroglycerin. :-)

Bubba,

I did almost the same thing this weekend. See the post titled
"this is what happens when I get bored..." Basically, I used ginger ale
instead of cola, horseradish mustard, honey and crushed red pepper
flakes. It was yummy!

Of course....I often eat them boiled so I get the pure unadulterated
taste....no char, no smoke, no salt...nothing. Yum!!! ;-)

Oh dear Lord, you're kidding about the boiling, right? ;-)

Probably no more than that other concoction that would surely cover
any tast that the meat had originally.

A bit. I guess hyperbole's hard to bring off, sometimes. Just get
tired of thoughtless responses that are little more than knee-jerk
clichés. The whole argument of unadulterated vs. enhanced has been
going on since the first "meat cooker" got bitched out by a "raw eater"
for ruining a good piece of meat.
You a physics teacher? Bet that would bring some great insights into
the kitchen.

No fear, that is a hands-off event.

Actually I did boil some ribs once. Was wanting pork stock for some
reason and found some way cheap ribs in the used meat section of the
supermart. The dog got the ribs but I do remember it made some killer
stock!

I'm trained as a physics teacher, but I am working as an electrical
engineer. I think that's why I try random stuff to see how it works.
WRT boiling, I have an Italian friend who puts a few ribs in the sauce
while it's cooking down, and it never occured to her to actually eat
the ribs. They just threw 'em away until they saw how much I enjoyed
eating them. What exactly is the "used meat section" of the grocery
store? I've only ever gotten one use out of my meat purchases.

Guess it's a bit like "day old bread". The local W/D puts the meats
that will expire that day in one section and steeply cuts the prices.
Since I'm in the habit of calling leftovers "used" (as in...I've got
some used peas in the frige) this section became the "used meat" section.
Sorry about the confusion...some have accused me of being a half bubble
shy of plumb.

Most stores have a "used foods" section. It is the stuff marked down for a
quick sale because of the expiration date. Good bargains can be had.
