Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup apple cider vinegar, preferably organic and unfiltered
1 tablespoon soy sauce
3 small bay leaves
1 large jalapeño chili, stemmed and roughly chopped
1 side baby-back pork ribs (about 2 pounds), cut into individual ribs
2 teaspoons sea salt
6 garlic cloves, peeled
2 teaspoons black peppercorns
Cooked rice

Steps:

  • In a bowl, combine vinegar, soy sauce, bay leaves and chili and set aside.
  • Season ribs with 1 teaspoon salt. Using a mortar and pestle or small food processor, grind remaining teaspoon salt, garlic and peppercorns to a rough paste. Rub paste into ribs and transfer to resealable plastic bag. Pour in vinegar mixture, seal and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight, turning occasionally.
  • Transfer ribs and marinade to a pot, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, covered, 1 hour, until meat is tender. Remove ribs to a baking sheet and simmer sauce until thick.
  • Meanwhile, preheat broiler. Pour 1/4 cup of thickened sauce over ribs, turn to coat, and broil until nicely browned, about 7 minutes, turning once. Serve with remaining sauce and rice.

Time 3h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 rack pork spareribs, cut in half (about 3 1/2 pounds)
2 tablespoons chipotle in adobo
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
3 cloves garlic
Juice of 3 oranges, plus 2 teaspoons grated orange zest
1 medium onion, chopped
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon lime juice
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Place the ribs in a roasting pan. Put the chipotle, soy, honey, garlic, orange juice and zest and onion in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour over the ribs. Add the bay leaves and enough water to almost cover the ribs (about 3/4 cup). Cover with foil and bake until the meat is fork tender and very soft, about 2 1/2 hours.
  • Remove the pork from the pan and pour the liquid into a saucepan to reduce until it is a glaze-like consistency, about 10 minutes. Add the lime juice and season with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat the broiler. Arrange the ribs in a single layer on a baking sheet or broiler pan and brush with the glaze. Broil until sticky and charred, about 6 minutes.

BRAISED RIBS WITH SPICY ADOBO



Braised Ribs with Spicy Adobo image

Oven-baked ribs, which were once the standard, are now uncommon, because everyone thinks grilled ribs are the thing. But these are delicious, great with rice or polenta, and far easier than grilling. But if you like, you can use this sauce for grilling, too: parboil the ribs in water until nearly tender, then grill them, basting with the sauce, until they are nicely browned. Other cuts of meat you can use here: chunks of pork shoulder, short ribs (which will need much more time), bone-in chicken thighs (which will cook much more quickly).

Yield makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 to 4 pounds spareribs, more or less, separated into individual ribs
Salt and black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 medium onion, peeled and quartered
2 teaspoons fresh oregano or marjoram leaves
1 tablespoon pimentón (page 14) or 1 dried chipotle chile, soaked in hot water to soften, then minced
2 cups chopped tomatoes with their liquid (canned are fine)
1 tablespoon wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Place a large deep skillet with a lid over medium-high heat and add the ribs. Cook, turning as necessary and sprinkling with salt and pepper, until they are well browned, at least 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  • Preheat the oven to 350° F. Turn the heat under the pan to medium and add the garlic, onion, oregano, more salt and pepper, and pimentón. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is well softened, about 10 minutes. Add the tomatoes and vinegar and cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes begin to soften, 5 to 10 minutes. Add the ribs, cover, and put the pan in the oven.
  • Cook until the ribs are tender and just about falling from the bone, an hour or more. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days; reheat gently before serving.

FILIPINO ADOBO (PORK OR CHICKEN) WITH SLOW COOKER VARIATION



Filipino Adobo (Pork or Chicken) With Slow Cooker Variation image

For about 20 years this recipe was just a lovely memory. When DH was in grad school one of his professors invited the entire class and their families to enjoy a Filipino meal prepared by his wife, Priscilla. She fed about 50 of us seated on the floor in front of long rolls of paper! 20 years later, that professor is no longer at this school but my husband and his son-in-law now teach here. Rachel, Priscilla's daughter, shared her Mom's recipe with me. She has added slow cooker instructions to fit her busy lifestyle but it is still the same great flavor that her mom prepared for us over 20 years ago. Thanks Priscilla and Rachel!! **NOTES** - Cooking time 2 hours stove or 6 hours slow cooker. - Slow Cookers vary in cooking times - adjust according to your appliance. - Freezer instructions courtesy of Erindipity.

Time 15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 -4 lbs pork (cut in 2-inch cubes) or 3 -4 lbs chicken (cut into serving pieces)
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 cup water
2 -3 bay leaves, crumbled
2 teaspoons peppercorns (whole)
4 garlic cloves, crushed
1 medium onion, chopped
3/4 teaspoon ground pepper
2 teaspoons salt (optional, I do not put it in, it is what the original cook uses)

Steps:

  • Note: The original recipe just called for vinegar. I use Apple Cider Vinegar - just use what you have. Some reviewers have used rice vinegar and been pleased. Rice vinegar seems to have a touch of sweetness. Do what pleases you - experiment and have fun in the kitchen.
  • Stove top instructions.
  • Combine all of the ingredients in a large pot. (The women who shared the recipe with me put the spices into the pot freely. Reviewer Felina suggested tying the spices into a cheesecloth to so that you get the flavor but don't bite into the peppercorns while you eat the dish - a stainless tea ball works too. Do whichever please you).
  • Allow everything sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes.
  • Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low; simmer for 1 1/2 - 2 hours (leave lid slightly ajar).
  • Remove lid and cook 10 minutes more.
  • Serve with rice.
  • Slow Cooker instructions.
  • Combine all of the ingredients in a slow cooker. (The women who shared the recipe with me put the spices into the pot freely. Reviewer Felina suggested tying the spices into a cheesecloth to so that you get the flavor but don't bite into the peppercorns while you eat the dish - a stainless tea ball works too. Do whichever please you).
  • Allow meat to sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes.
  • Cook on high for 3 hours or on low for 6 hours until pork or chicken is done (time depends on your slow cooker).
  • Serve with rice.
  • (Freezer instructions courtesy of Erindipity).
  • To freeze: Combine all ingredients in a ziptop bag. Freeze.
  • To serve: Thaw overnight in the refridgerator. Allow to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes; cook as directed.

Tips:

  • Choose the best ribs: Look for pork ribs that are meaty and have a good amount of marbling. Avoid ribs that are too fatty or have a lot of bone.
  • Prepare the ribs: Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs and cut them into individual pieces. You can also trim off any excess fat.
  • Make the adobo marinade:Combine soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, black pepper, bay leaves, and sugar in a bowl. Mix well and pour over the ribs.
  • Marinate the ribs:Place the ribs in a covered container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight.
  • Cook the ribs: Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Place the ribs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the ribs are tender and cooked through.
  • Baste the ribs: While the ribs are cooking, baste them with the adobo marinade every 30 minutes. This will help to keep the ribs moist and flavorful.
  • Serve the ribs: Once the ribs are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve with your favorite sides, such as rice, potatoes, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Pork ribs adobo is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, and black pepper gives the ribs a unique and flavorful taste. By following these tips, you can make sure that your pork ribs adobo turns out perfect every time.
