I LOVED this!!! Great flavors and this cooking method really kept my ribs very moist and tender! The only thing I had to change was that I did have to drain some of the liquid myself from time to time, or I would have had to cook it forever. Thanks very much for a great recipe!

This is an awesome recipe. Thankyou for sharing. I did reduce the amount of soy used to a 1/4 cup and added a 1/3 cup of red wine. It took the water about 1hr 30min to cook down to a 1/4 which was fine because the meat just fell off the bone. I then marinated it with hickory barQ sauce and baked it for 20min along with some red potatoes which i soaked in the pot. It turned out delicious and tonight i'm trying it out on pork chops.

A little too salty. I'll use less soy next time or use lower sodium soy. Definitly worth playing with the recipe to get the taste to exactly where you want it! Yum! Thanks for sharing.

3 stars because I've just started ~ how bout 3 stars for EASE of prep!! Well, I've started the recipe. It's on my stove coming to a boil. I did use 1/3 cup soy sauce per other reviewers. My rosemary is dried so I whirred it in the spice grinder to powder it a bit. Same with the oregano (leaves ~ ground it a bit to powder ~ but not completely powder). Did use cilantro. I did not have enough fresh garlic so used what I had (half head ~ about 4 HUGE cloves) and put some garlic powder in it. Used 3 small bay leaves and one fresh lime (juice). Also put in some course ground pepper. OMG it smells heavenly. I am anxious to see how this turns out. It's been my experience that boiling pork makes it dry.... I'm very hopeful. About 2 hours later... I boiled those ribs *really low* very slow... Just got to wondering what to have WITH them. I pulled the meat out, used 1 1/2 cups of broth (with 2 1/2 cups water) to make rice. Cooking down the little bit of liquid left to make a sauce. (a cup o red wine in it would be great!!) The ribs were bone in country style pork ribs. 9 of them. they are FALLING APART. The flavor is delectable!! I WILL MAKE THIS AGAIN!! Thank you

I love the smell of this cooking! I tried it with Chicken, it didnt work as well... I used boneless country ribs. The 2nd time I made this, I mixed up about 1/4 cup ketchup and brown sugar and added it to the pot as well (home made BBQ sauce) added a sweetness to it and I cut the soy sauce in half, it was a little bit salty for my family. All the teens that were at the house ate everything! That was a treat to see!!

My family loved these and it was simple and the meat was soooo tender. I didn't need to drown it in tons of sauce for it to stay moist and tasty!

My wife and I loved this recipe because it was so different from the way we usually enjoy ribs. 1/3 the soy sauce and low sodium was still a salty dish but excellent. After the two hours it took to evaporate the water, ours turned out more like pulled pork but we will definitely use this again!

Great!!! This takes WAY longer than it says, but is worth the wait. I would use a low sodium soy sauce otherwise the salt kicks you in the butt. You can make this recipe gluten free just by using Tamari soy sauce instead of regular.

The first time I made these was about 2 years ago, I have made them several times since then. Every time they are absolutely delicious.

It did take a lot longer to boil out the water than 25 minutes, even on high on my stove, (about 1 hour) but it was well worth the wait. Tasty, tender, yum!

This is one of the best recipes for meat ever! I tried it the first time with ribs and even though I almost burned them they still tasted awsome! The next time in one week I used chicken and it was just as good. You are crazy to not try it at least once!

Thank you very much for sharing this wonderful recipe. I'm making another batch of this for supper tonight. This has become a favorite in our household. The flavors are great and the meat is so tender. Perfect for my 94-year old grandfather and 4 year old son because it's easy for them to eat. Like the other reviewers, I also used less soy sauce. I usually put the soy sauce, lime juice and a splash of my favorite honey-lemon mix into a bowl, do a taste test then add the mixture to the pot. Oh, I also add more garlic just because we can never have enough garlic in our dishes. Supper is going to be a hit again tonight, that's for sure.

Followed the recipe exactly. Unfortunately, after 1 1/2 hours the ribs were still very raw. No water an raw ribs...put them in the oven, but they still didn't cook. However, I must say the flavor was really tasty. I might try recipe again on chicken or another cut of meat.

Delicious! I read the other reviews and also reduced the amount of soy sauce, especially since I bought a smaller package of spareribs. I also boiled the ribs solely with water for the first hour to get them more tender, then I added the other ingredients and followed the recipe. I didn't let all the liquid boil away as my husband and I love sauce, so I made sure there was enough sauce to serve over the ribs and rice. Wow, delicious! I ate more than my share. Will definitely be making these again and again!

Tender & tasty. my husband was requesting to have it again within 2 bites! An easy recipe with awesome results! i made this using just under 2lbs of bnls sliced pork ribs. i added half of a small onion (diced), used about 1/2 tsp dried of each spice + basil. we aren't too keen on soy sauce so again I only used about 1/2 a tsp.
