Best Portuguese Roasted Pork Ribs Recipes

PORTUGUESE GARLIC ROASTED PORK (TORRESMOS)

Steps:

• Cut the pork into 2 inch cubes and separate the ribs, then place in a large container with a lid. Combine all of the remaining ingredients (except the lard) and pour over the pork, turning to coat.
• Let the meat marinade for between 24 & 48 hours in the refrigerator, turning several times.
• When ready to cook, remove the meat from the fridge at least 30 minutes before using.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F Melt the lard in the roasting pan.
• Remove the pork from the marinade and discard the marinade.
• Add the pork and red peppers to the melted lard and cook covered until the pork is cooked, turning occasionally.

WINE AND GARLIC PORK (PORTUGUESE VINA DOSH)

Steps:

• Whisk red wine vinegar, red wine, garlic, bay leaves, cloves, black pepper, salt, and thyme together in a bowl; pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add the pork, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator 2 to 4 days, turning occasionally.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Drain the pork, reserving 1/2 cup of marinade. Put pork and reserved marinade in a baking dish.
• Bake in preheated oven until the pork is completely warmed, about 20 minutes. Drain as much liquid from the pork as possible.
• Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the pork to the skillet in batches to prevent crowding; cook and stir in hot oil until completely browned and no longer pink in the center, 10 to 15 minutes.
