Wasn't sure where to file this one here... Mod's move it if it needs to be moved.
Found this in another forum. I'm going to try it this weekend. Sounded pretty interesting. Credit to BabblinBrookie at Country By Nets forums.
<blockquote id="quote"><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id="quote">quote:<hr height="1" noshade id="quote">KILLER LIP SMACKIN CHERRY COLA BBQ SAUCE
5 cloves garlic, peeled
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 (#10 size) can catsup
1 large Vidala onion fine chopped
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
2 tablespoons Worchestshire sauce
3 tablespoons yellow mustard
1 (5-ounce) bottle pickapeppa sauce (This contains: mangos, raisins, tamarinds, salt and pepper, tomatoes)
2 tablespoons wine vinegar
2 large juice oranges
1 large lime
2 lemons
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons grated horseradish
1 can Coca Cola®, Cherry Cola, or Dr Pepper
Few dried chiles, to taste
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper, to taste
Place the garlic in cup of boiling water for 3 minutes. Remove and chop fine. Saute the onions in the olive oil over medium-high heat for 5 minutes, until just starting to brown. Remove from the heat and wait 1 minute for the pan to start to cool. Add the chopped garlic, stir, and place mixture in a bowl to cool - never let the garlic hit the hot oil over the fire - this way the garlic will infuse the remaining moisture and not burn and get bitter.
In a large stock pot over medium-low heat add the catsup and bring to a slow simmer, always stirring. After 10 minutes add the onions, garlic, soy sauce, liquid smoke, Worcestershire sauce, yellow mustard, pickapeppa sauce, and wine vinegar, and let simmer for another 10 minutes, covered.
Cut all the fruit into quarters and squeeze the juice into the pot. Then, add the fruit to the pot, with the brown sugar, horseradish, and Cola or Dr. Pepper. Continue to simmer for at least 40 minutes, covered. Add the dried chile peppers and cayenne, turn off heat and let the chiles go to work for about another 20 minutes.<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"></font id="quote">

If you really like the flavor, I have actually used the fountain syrup for my sauces. I have a home four hole fountain that dispenses sodas, and have the syrups. I use a bit when I am marinating ribs or pork....yum!

Bill,
Where can you purchase fountain syrup retail.<blockquote id="quote"><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id="quote">quote:<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"><i>Originally posted by nsxbill</i>

I believe Smart and Final has it. I get it from the Coca Cola Distributor by the case.

The Sam's Club in my area sells it, but you have to buy five gallons at a time. The store that I go to won't sell it to you until you talk with someone at customer service, a manager or assistant manager. They said that too many people had bought the five gallon syrup containers thinking that it was soda. After the customer opens it and finds out their mistake, they want to return it. So now Sam's want to make sure everyone who purchase it knows that it is syrup before they make the purchase.

You might try smoking the onions and ditching the liquid smoke...

This syrup is concentrate to be mixed - I think 5 to 1 to make sodas in a commercial(or home) fountain. It won't go flat, it just is unreasonable to buy 5 gallons at a time unless you are BBQ'ing 24 hours a day. Smart and Final, if in your area has it in one gallon containers. Of course the Coke distributor is going to want to sell it to you by the case (4 gallons), but there are other alternatives. Another source for syrups are the Mom and Pop outfits that supply the carbonated drink machines that are used at home. They would be selling by the gallon too, and usually have syrups from most of the major suppliers all in one spot. (Dr. Pepper, 7 up, etc). Dr. Pepper or Mr. Pibb syrup also good for BBQ. It really carmelizes well, as well as tenderizing the meat a bit.

I hate to admit this, but this is how I found the syrup. I thought it was soda, and was going to buy some, when I saw on the label that it was syrup. I was part of a committee to purchase food for a family reunion, and thought that five gallon containers would be better than lugging around several bottles. Those that buy they syrup thinking it is soda, are usually people who are usually doing so for church dinners; firehouse BBQ lunches, or some other large food function.
And what's up with this Coke stuff anyway...we have settled this in the past, this is a <b><font size="6"><font color="blue">Pepsi</font id="blue"> </font id="size6"> </b> only BBQ Board.

COKE with a slice of lemon!
Well folks there are 5 gallon cans of coke and of coke syrup. They are for a Pre-Mix machine and a Brix Machine. Bill is correct it is 5 to 1.

Well guys... I just finished the simmer and I have to say... this is pretty damn good by itself. The true test will come later tonight.
Changes noted between asterisks:
5 cloves garlic, peeled
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 (#10 size) can catsup
1 large **White as Vidala is not available in the store** onion fine chopped. Sweated in skillet prior to adding.
2 tablespoons soy sauce
** Ommited 1 teaspoon liquid smoke**
2 tablespoons Worchestshire sauce
3 tablespoons yellow mustard
1 (5-ounce) bottle pickapeppa sauce (This contains: mangos, raisins, tamarinds, salt and pepper, tomatoes) ** Couldn't find in store used a Safeway brand that's pretty close ingredient wise **
2 tablespoons wine vinegar
2 large juice oranges
1 large lime
2 lemons
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons grated horseradish
1 can Coca Cola
Few dried chiles, to taste
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper, to taste
I did add about 1 tsp Balsamic just to get a little more punch.
Soooo! What are you going to sauce up with this concoction? You never did say.

Actually a nice short smoked, grilled hamsteak with corn and baked potato. If it holds well to that we'll try a short stack of ribs next weekend.
