I’ve used both regular and diet Dr. Pepper without being able to tell the difference. For me, the sauce never thickens, but I let it simmer for about 35-45 minutes and then call it good.

It’s not clear in the recipe, but I take the peppers out of the sauce when it’s done cooking. I also double the sauce and don’t double the peppers. It’s the perfect amount of spiciness for us. I make 3 racks for our family of 5 and have a bit left over for lunch the next day.

Did have root beer and use that fabulous . I also use 1/4 of the can of peppers as I don’t like real hot and they were just right.
Its a keeper

First, everything I read said to allow 3-4 ribs per person, or 1/2 pound. For ten people, I ended up cooking 4 slabs of baby back ribs. I did have leftovers, but 3 slabs would not have been enough. Also, since I was doing 4 slabs, I doubled the recipe. The sauce did not thicken in 20 minutes, or even in 40 minutes. It took about an hour and a half. I will definitely make these again. If you need to double the recipe, I would put the sauce in a wide pan, like a dutch oven, to give it more evaporation space. (Wider, not as deep.) And don’t assume you’ll feed 12 with two slabs of baby back ribs. But I got RAVE reviews. Thanks PW.

Made this recipe recently. Easy, tasty, smelled sooooo good while cooking. Meat was falling off the bone moist and tender. I put in too much spice but it was still great. Plan too make again soon.

Very moist, tasty. I did add just a touch too much hot, but that didn’t mess up the flavor. Plan to make again soon. Thanks for the recipe.

Baby ribs are the best WE tasted.
Thank you

The smell of them baking this afternoon made my mouth water. But the taste? The absolute best ribs we’ve ever had. I made potato salad and baked beans, too, but the ribs were so good that I passed on the sides!
