Tex-Mex Ribs recipe




Ingredients for 4 guests:

* 4 lb. of pork ribs
* 2 cups ketchup
* 1 clove garlic, minced
* 2 tablespoons soy sauce
* 3 tablespoons honey
* 2 tablespoons olive oil
* 1 and 1/2 cup long grain white rice
* 1 can (12 oz.) red kidney beans, drained
* 1 cup canned white corn, drained
* 2 Tablespoons butter
* 2 tablespoons unsalted peanuts
* 2 sprigs fresh cilantro, washed and chopped
* 1 Tablespoon Tabasco or two tablespoon Frank's
* 2 tablespoons vinegar

Arrange the ribs on an aluminum foil lined baking dish and roast for 30 minutes, turning pieces occasionally until they caramelize.

Serve this rice with the Tex-Mex Ribs and some of the marinade we did at step 2...
