Puerto Rican food is known for delicious things like mofongo, pernil, arroz con gandules and pasteles, but there is so much more to our cuisine. A big part of Puerto Rican culture revolves around grilling and outdoor cooking. We are famous for delicious grilled meats that are seasoned with lots of flavor and served roadside or beachside.
One of the things my dad always makes when we're having family gatherings is costillas, or BBQ pork ribs. The traditional American BBQ that's slathered in sauce and cooked for 8+ hours was never something I grew up eating. In my home, we make ribs in 2 hours or less, with a #TeamFast cooking method that involves browning them on the grill, then roasting the ribs in aluminum foil, so they get nice and tender in a jiffy.
My Puerto Rican costillas also aren't slathered in BBQ sauce, as they already have lots of flavor on their own. The quality of the ribs are super important, since they're the star of this show. Smithfield Extra Tender Fresh Pork Spareribs are my secret weapon to cooking perfect ribs every time. They're hand trimmed, extra tender & juicy with no added hormones or steroids, so you can feel food about feeding them to your family. My Puerto Rican BBQ ribs are perfect with a glass of Liberty Creek wine, I love making a luscious sangria with it!
I love getting Smithfield Extra Tender Fresh Pork Spareribs at my local Walmart, using their amazing Online Grocery Pickup service. I can place an order for my all ingredients from the convenience of my home, or anywhere using the Walmart Grocery app. When I arrive during my pre-selected time slot, they greet you right away and bring your groceries right to my car. I don't think I'll ever be able to do my groceries any other way, it's just so convenient!
If you're intimidated about making ribs on the grill, don't be! My easy method makes sure you end up with delicious, tender ribs, even if you're making them for the first time! Smithfield Extra Tender Fresh Pork is more tender and juicy, so no matter the level of experience consumers have in the kitchen or at the grill, their pork ribs are sure to impress.
