Tips

  • Personally, I don't like the rib too melted off the bone, so I only cook it for 45 minutes. If you prefer it softer, I suggest 2 hours of cooking.
  • Every 15 minutes of cooking, add about 100mL of water to avoid burning the bottom of the pan and forming a thick syrup that covers all the meat!
  • Lime and orange zest are optional. They bring a freshness that I think is cool, but I believe there are people who won't like it!
