costillas
Grilled meat cuts
Costillas is the Spanish word for ribs—both the bones of the body and the cut of meat.
In English, the term appears almost exclusively on restaurant menus, referring to ribs prepared in Latin American or Spanish styles: The costillas were fall-off-the-bone tender.
Often paired with a preparation method: costillas a la barbacoa, costillas en salsa verde.
