Tender Southern Neck Bones
Ingredients
  • 2 onions, roughly chopped
  • 5 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
  • 4 pounds pork neck bones
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a medium-high temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or 190 degrees Celsius, if you prefer metric).
2
Next, take a quarter of the chopped onions and a quarter of the chopped garlic and place them at the bottom of a roasting pan. Pour in some water and vinegar to add moisture and flavor. Season the neck bones with a pinch of salt and pepper, making sure they're well-coated.
3
Then, sprinkle the remaining onions and garlic over the top of the neck bones, creating a layered effect. Cover the roasting pan tightly with aluminum foil to trap the flavors and moisture.
4
Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven and let it cook for 2 hours, every 30 minutes you'll need to baste the contents with a spoon. After each basting, recover the pan with the foil.
5
After 2 hours of cooking, remove the foil and continue to cook until the neck bones are a golden brown color, taking an additional 45 minutes to achieve this.
