Braised Mexican-Style Pork Ribs Serving Suggestions
My family enjoys these ribs many ways but, these are the top three ways. Sometimes, they enjoy them served over a scoop of rice, or as a hoagie on a toasted baguette with coleslaw as well as wrapped in warm tortillas with their favorite taco toppings such as pico de gallo or guacamole. It's another one of those dishes that is so simple to prepare and packs such great flavor making them an ideal choice for any occasion.
