BBQ ribs
Sauced rack meat
BBQ ribs are pork or beef ribs slow-cooked with smoke and sauce until the meat is tender and pulls easily from the bone.
They're a cornerstone of American barbecue culture, with regional variations in preparation—Memphis-style dry rubs, Kansas City's thick sweet sauce, Texas beef ribs with minimal seasoning.
