Orange-Soy-Braised Pork RibsRomulo Yanes

A long, slow braise is the secret to tender meat that falls off the bone.

Cooks' note:

Ribs can be braised 5 days ahead and cooled completely in cooking liquid, uncovered, then chilled, covering them once they are completely cold. To reheat, set roasting pan with ribs and cooking liquid over moderate heat, covered with foil. Simmer, covered, turning once, until they are heated through, about 15 minutes, then transfer ribs to a baking dish and keep warm. Make glaze as directed.
