Fourth of July Barbecue

Pork ribs marinated in cola, slow-grilled to perfection, and finished with a cola-infused glaze make the perfect headliner for this Independence Day celebration.

  • Fiesta Slaw

    Fiesta Slaw

    This slaw packs more flavor and color than the traditional barbecue and summer picnic favorite.

  • Best Lemonade

    Best Lemonade

    Most pre-made lemonade is sweet and sugary with not enough lemon. We wanted to find a way to maximize the bright flavor of fresh fruit and add just enough sweetness.

  • Whoopie Pies

    Whoopie Pies

    The origins of this classic confection date to the early part of the 20th century to either coastal Maine or the rich baking tradition of the Pennsylvania Dutch. In either case, we wanted to update the slightly fusty, lard-laced recipe.

  • Cola-Barbecued Ribs

    Cola-Barbecued Ribs

    Cola ribs are becoming increasingly popular with backyard and even competition barbecuers. Unfortunately, the sugary cola can burn on the outside of the ribs and the cola flavor is often minimal. The secret to harnessing cola flavor is to tame the soda's sweetness and augment its base flavors with similar spices.
