Ribs are the easiest way to my daughter’s heart. She orders them whenever we go out to eat, so I’ve started making them at home, too. I like to serve these mouthwatering ribs alongside a simple slaw made with shredded cabbage, lime juice, and avocado oil mayonnaise.

Charred Cabbage With Shrimp Paste Butter
A little shrimp paste goes a long, long, long way in this delicious vegetable dish.

This summery sheet-pan dinner celebrates the bounty of the season and couldn't be simpler to make. Chorizo plays nicely with the salad, thanks to its spice.
Moo Ping (Thai Grilled Pork Skewers)
This version of pork skewers is made in the oven, which tastes just as good, but you could always throw these on the grill for a version closer to the original.
Sofrito Bolognese
An ex-boyfriend’s mom—who emigrated from Colombia—made the best meat sauce—she would fry sofrito for the base and simply add cooked ground beef, sazón, and jarred tomato sauce. My version is a bit more bougie—it calls for caramelized tomato paste and white wine—but the result is just as good.
Smothered Italian Sausage

Chipotle-Citrus Ribs
Tender, well-glazed, and just spicy enough, these ribs are the ultimate grill-out food. Cook fully in the oven ahead of time and finish them on the grill.
