“I had a neighbor tell me a few years ago that they were making Dr. Pepper Barbecued Ribs for one of the summer holidays. It sounded so good and since then I’ve been meaning to make some myself. This is a fantastic BBQ sauce that you can use on anything. It is a good balance of both sweet and spicy.” – April Ferre
