Smoked Baby Back Ribs are a savory and tender dish rooted in American barbecue cuisine, particularly popular in the Southern United States. These ribs are cut from the upper portion of the pig’s rib cage, closer to the spine, which makes them leaner and smaller than spare ribs. They are typically coated in a flavorful dry rub or marinade, then slow-smoked to perfection over hardwood, infusing them with a rich, smoky aroma. Nutritionally, the ribs are a good source of protein, essential for muscle repair and energy, but they can also be high in saturated fats and sodium, especially when served with sugary barbecue sauces. Served with side dishes, they often anchor indulgent meals. While they can fit into a balanced diet in moderation, opting for a lighter glaze or rub and pairing them with fiber-rich vegetables can help enhance nutritional value while keeping the iconic flavors intact.
