Barbecue ribs are an emblematic dish with its roots in the culinary tradition of the southern United States, especially in states like Texas, North Carolina, and Tennessee, where barbecue has become a gastronomic and social practice. This dish has also transcended borders and has variations in several Latin American countries. In Mexico, they are simply known as "BBQ ribs" or "barbacoa ribs," while in Argentina they are usually called "asador ribs." In other countries, such as Colombia and Venezuela, the preparation may vary a bit, but the essence of the smoky and caramelized flavor is always maintained. This recipe reflects the perfect combination of caramelization, spices, and slow cooking that characterizes true barbecue.
