This worked out really well, very close to the ribs I bought at the grocery store in Azeka mall. I made one small addition with three tablespoons of lemongrass as well. Delicious!

I never really cook ribs and everytime I order some while out, I end up rushing them....but ending up with a sore mouth, something about the seasonings they use. Since I always down my coke and have never cooked with it.....this is a PERFECT recipe to change all that!

I have heard that someone commercialized the sauce, but it would be mass produced, factory blended and probably not very good.

My version of the Azeka ribs is my recollection of the taste of the ribs...I am not claiming that it is authentic. I know that I used less sugar; theirs had a strong brown sugar taste , for example. The name of the rib shack, Azeka, that is associated with the ribs is the name of the shopping center(strip mall) that the shack was located. There still is two malls, located on either side of South Kihei Road; Azeka Makai and Azeka Mauka. (meaning towards the ocean and towards the mountains)

I made Hawaiian-Azeka Style ribs last month for the dirt cheap contest and they were fabulous. Sorry to hear about Azeka's, but I hear that you can purchase the sauce in some areas.
Never tried the Coke or Pepsi, interesting. I have about 5 lbs of ribs in the freezer so I might have to fire up the grill.

I've come across recipes calling for Coke or Pepsi and always been skeptical. Good to have validation from one so knowledgeable. Thank you!

Terrific! This sounds like a great idea as part of our Father's Day barbecue.
