The origins of Barbecue Ribs
Barbecue ribs have been a favorite barbecue dish for centuries. The history of ribs dates back to the Native Americans who cooked their meat over an open fire. They used wood chips, herbs, and other ingredients to create a unique flavor.
In the 18th century, European settlers brought their own version of ribs to the United States. This version was cooked with a dry rub and cooked slowly over indirect heat. This technique is still used today and is the basis of most modern barbecue rib recipes.
Today, ribs are a popular dish at backyard barbecues and restaurants alike. They are typically cooked with a variety of seasonings, sauces, and rubs to create a delicious and flavorful meal. No matter the style, barbecue ribs are sure to be a hit!
