Barbecued spareribs a favorite at summer cookouts can contain as much as 26 grams of fat per serving. Try this hearty, high-protein dish instead. It is just as satisfying and will fill you up with a fraction of the fat. While the dish takes 2 hours from start to finish, most of that time the pork cooks unattended. Serve it with a side of Creamy Coleslaw, corn on the cob, and a slice of fresh watermelon.
Method :
- Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the pork and brown, turning occasionally, for 5 minutes.
- Add the onion, ketchup, vinegar, molasses, sugar, mustard powder, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, and broth. Stir the mixture well to combine and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 1½ hours, or until the pork is very tender.
- Uncover the saucepan, remove the pork to a cutting board, and loosely cover with foil. Continue to simmer the remaining sauce 10 minutes longer, or until the sauce has thickened slightly. Remove from the heat. Pull the pork into shreds with two forks and serve with the sauce.
