Supper was the main meal of each day. It was eaten near sunset. It consisted of vegetables, fruit, fish, and possibly honey cakes. Sugar was unknown to ancient Greeks, so natural honey was used as a sweetener. Fish was the main source of protein in the Greek diet. Beef was very expensive, so it was rarely eaten.
Also, the duration taken to boil pork ribs depends on their size. Small cuts of pork ribs would take only an hour to become tender, but larger pieces may take about three hours. The estimated time that pork ribs take to boil is about 50 minutes for around 6 pounds of pork ribs.
Place the pork ribs meat side up onto an ungreased cookie sheet and rub them with any style of pork rub, or any kind of seasonings of your choice. Let them stand for at least 5 minutes to allow the rub to penetrate the meat. Cook the pork ribs for about 2 1/2 hours. To test if they're done, slice a small amount of meat away from the bone; when the meat is tender and white, cooking is complete. The meat should not be pink; if it is, keep cooking the ribs until they're ready.
