Slow Cooked Pork (click picture to enlarge)

After enjoying some ribs for dinner at a restaurant I wanted to do something similar at home.

Pork: I bought some boneless country style ribs for this. I put the meat in the slow cooker, poured half a bottle of BBQ sauce (I think it was Bull’s Eye, but any will work) over it and adjusted the taste with some Sriracha (Thai hot sauce). I set the slow cooker to low and let it sit for 8 hours. At the end I opened the lid and let it cook for another half hour on high while frequently stirring. The last step is to dry the mixture out a little.

I made more than we would eat in one meal. We had this with stir fried vegetables, then with some salad and some left over even with just a slice of whole wheat bread. It would also be good with just some dinner rolls.

This is yet another meal inspired by our recent trip to Greece. Over there I enjoyed a dish with okra and that made me think that I don’t use okra enough, actually never :)

Pork: I marinated the pork over night with a miso-ginger marinade that I bought. Then I roasted the pork in my portable convection oven mentioned in the Cripsy Pork post for about 20 minutes.

Okra: Fry an onion until soft, then add a bag of frozen okra, some salt/pepper and let it cook for about 5 minutes. Finally add a can of tomatoes. Let the mixture sit until the okra is soft.
