    Breadfruit Simmered In Coconut Milk And Stewed Pork.

    This combination of breadfruit simmered in a stew of coconut milk and pork is one of those dishes which takes me right back to being a carefree boy on the islands. My dad would have ‘card’ night with my grandfather, his brother-in-law (my grandmother’s brother) and a few other fellas from the village. Since mom knew this was usually an all-night thing, she would always make a huge pot of this. The crew always requested (demanded) it. My brother and I would always have our portion early (before hitting the bed).. sisters never cared for it.

    Caribbean Stewed Pork Ribs.

    We’ve grilled them, done a sort of “oven BBQ” during the winter and this coming summer I plan on doing a classic smoked/jerk over a charcoal fire, but for now I’d like to share yet another way to do pork ribs. You’re free to use the short ribs type you get at the Asian markets (ones sold for making dry garlic ribs), baby-back or your regular rack of pork ribs for this recipe. Using the classic Caribbean technique of ‘stewing’ to start, then we’ll slowly braise these ribs until they tender and packed with rich Caribbean flavor.
