Rum and Coke BBQ Sauce:
Combine Coke, lime juice, orange juice, allspice and cinnamon in a small pot; bring to a boil; reduce heat: simmer for 2 minutes.
Combine cornstarch and water; add to simmering liquid; continue to simmer while stirring with a whisk for 5 minutes; take off of heat. Add rum and BBQ sauce; strain; refrigerate.
Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
BBQ Ribs:
Season ribs generously with seasoning; baste with Rum and Coke BBQ sauce.
Place ribs on a sheet tray with sides, both should fit on one, with the bones facing up; add approximately 1 c. water to tray. Wrap ribs and tray tight with plastic wrap. Yes, plastic wrap! Then wrap it with foil; bake in the oven for 2 ½ hours or until ribs are tender; if baking in a convection oven, reduce cook time by 30 minutes.
When ready to finish cooking the ribs, preheat a grill.
When tender, remove from oven; brush with Rum and Coke BBQ Sauce; place on a hot grill to get a nice char, brushing frequently while grilling and before removing the ribs from the grill.
