I love this saucy, tender pile of pork. It needs no salsa or special toppings. It’s good as is, over a heap of Southwest Cabbage Slaw, or wrapped with a Paleo Tortilla. You may want to serve this with a little Simple Guacamole, because everything is better with guac....
Here’s another take on sweet pulled pork with a Tex-Mex flair. Pineapple and honey are such great complements to the pork and the jalapeños. If you have a lot of meat left, you can transfer it to a freezer-safe container and freeze for a later meal. (Psst—all of the...

I’ve met only a couple people who eat meat and don’t like pulled pork—it seems to be a universally loved potluck or picnic dish. I created a version using apples and my Cider BBQ Sauce to create the familiar sweet and tangy flavors. Prep time 15 minutesServes 10 to 12...
This glaze. I can’t even begin to tell you how deliciously sticky, tangy, and addictive it is. It’s the perfect complement to these Asian-style ribs! Prep time 15 minutes, plus marinating timeServes 6 1 full rack of spare or back ribs1 tablespoon (18 g) sea salt1/3...
Here’s a different take on ribs, with flavors of Dijon and a tangy balsamic glaze. My rib-loving 7-year-old could barely contain herself when she saw these come out of the oven. You can serve them with a side of Rosemary-Garlic Mashed Potatoes or a big green salad,...
Overnight marinating makes a big difference with large cuts of meat. This sweet chili paste gets into every nook and cranny on these ribs. They don’t even need a sauce after they’re cooked! Prep time 15 minutesServes 6 1 6-ounce (170 gram) can tomato paste1/3 cup (115...
I’ve only recently started liking pork ribs. Crazy, right? My dislike stemmed from chewy, gummy meat covered with overly sweet barbecue sauce on the ribs I had eaten in the past. Well, these ribs fall right off the bone and are covered with just-sweet-enough sauce....
Pork chili verde is a staple in Latin American cuisine, and it’s naturally paleo! The blend of peppers, chillies, and tomatillos makes a tart and spicy filling for Paleo Tortillas or a topping for Cauliflower Rice or “Baked” Sweet Potatoes. It’s especially good for...
Egg rolls are a popular Chinese food, but nothing fried in vegetable oil is a very healthy choice. I took the filling—a mixture of flavorful ground pork, vegetables, and seasoning—and cooked them together. To give them some crispy texture, I added water chestnuts and...
