SODA-Licious Coca Cola Mop Sauce

Coca Cola mop sauce on a rack of smoked pork ribs.

We make a lot of ribs here so it’s not uncommon for us to try making new creations. Whether it be a new rub or a sauce; we’re always trying to take it to the next level.

Mop sauce is a key way to not only bring out more colour and bark on your ribs, but it will help infuse more flavour into your meat.

That’s why I love this Coca Cola Mop Sauce. It’s got the sweet tang to really give your ribs flavour. The acid in the this sauce helps tenderize the pork while the sugars balance the sweeetness. I would love for you to try this on your next pork rib cook! It’s sweet yet savoury and brings out a bold bark on your ribs or pork roast. 

This recipe is a very simple mop sauce and perfect on pork or beef!

INGREDIENTS:

• 1/2 can Coca Cola 

• 1/2 can Apple Cider Vinegar

• 1/2 cup Brown Sugar

• 1/4 cup BBQ Sauce (I used Pit Boss Kansas City BBQ Sauce)

DIRECTIONS 

In a small sauce pot combine all 4 ingredients and bring to a quick boil. Remove from heat and use a mop to dab onto your protein.

BEST PRACTICES: 

1. Let rub on the protein dry before mopping (approx 2 hours into smoking)

2. When mopping dab don’t brush

3. Mop as often as every 20 minutes 

4. Experiment and try different combinations! Let creativity guide you.

5. Apple Cider Vinegar is acidic and helps push the flavour deeper into the protein.
