7-Up Barbecue Sauce (1957)

• 1 7-oz bottle 7-Up
• 1/4 cup catsup
• 1/4 cup chopped onions
• 1 tspn brown sugar
• 1 tspn Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tspn salt
• 1 tspn vinegar
• 1/4 tspn dry mustard
• 1/4 tspn celery seed
• dash of freshly ground pepper

Mix the above ingredients.  Baste ribs frequently with mixture.  

Special Hint - "Here's how to bring out the flavor of your favorite barbecue meat--- ribs, roast, or chicken. Each time the meat is turned, baste liberally with 7-Up.  It provides a special taste treat, and helps to tenderize the meat.  Use 7-Up barbecue sauce as desired, when basting."
