Description

The costillas Cubanas at Havana Central taste just like real barbecued ribs, rich, smoky, and dripping a slightly sweet mango-habanero sauce that wouldn't be out of place in the Carolinas, Memphis, or even Texas. And the rice-and-bean sides go just as well with ribs as, say, dill pickles and Wonder Bread.
