I was dreaming of a sweet and tangy sauce ala 排骨王 when I thought of the ribs. Imagine sticky ribs slow cooked to supreme tenderness.. I can easily polish off a whole pot by myself! You can either use Char Siew Sauce, Hoisin Sauce or what I used here, HK Style BBQ Sauce in this recipe. This sauce by Chef King (available at Fairprice) is one of the best Char Siew sauce I have tried out of a packet or bottle. I have oven-roasted prime ribs and wings with it and received raving reviews. Give it a try if you can grab a packet. Apart from Char Siew sauce, you also need plum sauce, tomato sauce, a little bit of black vinegar and Worcestershire. Then it’s all about leaving the pork to cook on low for 3-4 hours in your slow cooker if using pork collar or pork chop slices or about 6 hours if using soft bone or prime ribs. The end result is extremely tender! One optional step to make the gravy more sticky: ladle a portion from your slow cooker and cook over the stove top for a few minutes until reduced. You can also choose to deep fry the pork but I don’t usually deep fry my food. This dish is excellent paired with rice and some blanched leafy vegetables by the side. That’s about all you need. The ingredients in this recipe is sponsored by PurelyFresh. I especially like how you can ask for your fresh meat/fish orders to be customised to your liking. I didn’t even have to slice the pork collar myself!
