COSTILLAS VERDE (RIBS IN GREEN CHILE)



Costillas Verde (Ribs in Green Chile) image

Simple basic fare; ribs smothered in Green Chile with potatoes. Easy to put in the crock pot and forget. The longer it cooks, the better it tastes. I first stumbled on this recipe in one of the local Mexican eateries, and just had to figure out how to make it at home. Make plenty; it tastes even better the second day. Pork chops or country style ribs may be substituted for pork short ribs, if desired. Buttered corn is a good vegetable to serve with this.

Time 4h20m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (4 lb) rack pork spareribs
1 (40 ounce) jar green chili sauce, 505 medium, Stokes, equivalent homebrewed
3 -4 raw potatoes, in 1-inch cubes
1 -2 drop dave's ultimate insanity habanero sauce (or the fire of your choosing) (optional)
salt
black pepper (coarse ground is best)
garlic powder
shredded cheddar cheese
cornstarch
flour tortilla, warmed

Steps:

  • Remove excess fat from ribs as required. Cut rack of ribs only as needed to fit in large pot. Bring to boil and then fast simmer slabs of ribs in water, seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic powder, for 30-45 minutes. As ribs are boiling, place green chile in slow cooker. Heat to just bubbling, but do not allow to come to a boil.
  • Remove ribs from boiling water, and slice into individual ribs. Arrange ribs in slow cooker, then place raw potato cubes on top, ensuring that ribs and potatoes are fully submerged in green chile.
  • Simmer until potatoes are fully cooked, 2-3 hours. If the Green Chile gets too thin, thicken with a little Corn Starch.
  • With slotted spoon, remove potatoes from cooker to plates, top each serving with shredded cheddar and place under broiler just long enough to melt the cheese.
  • Arrange ribs on plates, and cover with ladled green chile. Serve with warmed tortilla to sop up the good stuff.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ribs. Back ribs are the best choice for this recipe, as they have more meat and are easier to cook.
  • Make sure the ribs are trimmed. Remove any excess fat or silver skin from the ribs before cooking.
  • Use a good quality green chile sauce. The sauce is the star of this dish, so make sure to use one that you enjoy.
  • Cook the ribs slowly. This will help them to become tender and fall-off-the-bone.
  • Baste the ribs often. Basting the ribs with the green chile sauce will help to keep them moist and flavorful.
  • Let the ribs rest before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the ribs, making them even more tender.

Conclusion:

Green chile ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you are tailgating, hosting a party, or simply looking for a tasty weeknight meal, these ribs are sure to be a hit. So next time you are looking for a new recipe to try, give green chile ribs a try.
