Sparerib dish is among the most popular in Western and Asian cuisine. Spareribs or side ribs are a variety of pork ribs or beef ribs that are a long cut from the lower portion of the pig or cattle, specifically the belly and breastbone, behind the shoulder, and include 11 to 13 long bones. A covering of meat on top of the bones, as well as between them, can be found.

Preparations vary among different cuisines involving these spareribs. In the Cantonese dishes of southern China, spareribs are generally red in color and roasted with a sweet and savory sauce. American cuisine generally cooked the dish on a barbecue or an open fire. The sauces also differ according to preferences. Others would have it sweet and spicy. Some would put in ketchup.

You are not that far from that flavorful sparerib dish that you want. Enjoy!
