Glazed, barbecued, smoked, basted with herbs and spices…it’s a juicy, tender piece of heaven for meat overs everywhere, and the stuff of every vegetarian’s worst nightmares. Called Canadian back ribs or pork loin back ribs, they’re more popularly known as baby back ribs. Make that Baby Back Ribs!
A staple for steak houses and family-feel restaurants alike, baby back ribs are those marvelously prepared pork ribs served with hefty doses of delicious barbecue sauce. Baby back ribs come from cuts between the pork loin and spareribs, making for a literally meat-falling-off-the-bones treat. Since baby back ribs are very tender and are composed of the thinner pork ribs, using your fingers to eat them is the common option, making the ribs experience an exceedingly enjoyable one. You can pick those ribs up one by one and gnaw on the lean meat, suck on the tasty juice from them and then lick the barbecue sauce and glaze off your fingers.
Mouth-watering with the smell of it being grilled alone, baby back ribs are a wonderful presence at casual get-togethers and informal parties or events. Backyard barbecues call for baby back ribs, as do sporting events and outdoor parties. Baby back ribs are now sold frozen, so it’s possible to make your own delectable dish using grandma’s special recipe. Served with side dishes like french fries, onion rings or even with rice, baby back ribs are definitely one of the world’s tastiest favorites.
Grilled Tips
It’s a lazy Sunday afternoon, and you have some friends coming over for dinner. The air is crisp and cool, but still warm enough for you to stay outdoors. What other way to complement the beautiful weather and good company than with a nice little grilling session out in the yard? Haul out those lawn chairs, get out that deck of cards, pour the glasses of wine, beer and soda, and set up that grill.
