Notes
Cooking Tips for Spicy Beef Ribs Adobo sa Gata:
- Marinating for Flavor: Allow the beef ribs to marinate for at least 15 minutes in the mixture of soy sauce, black pepper, and oyster sauce before cooking to infuse the meat with delicious flavors.
- Slow Simmering: Achieve tender, melt-in-your-mouth beef ribs by simmering them on low heat for an extended period, typically around 1 hour, allowing the meat to absorb the rich adobo flavors and become exceptionally tender.
- Balancing Spiciness: Adjust the level of spiciness to your preference by controlling the number of chilies added; start with a small amount and gradually increase to achieve your desired heat level without overpowering the dish.
