Did you ever wonder where the name spareribs came from and what it actually means? Believe it or not, the word spareribs originated from the German Rippenspeer, which translates into English as spear ribs; because spareribs were originally cooked on a spear. Then the word was later changed to spareribs, because the meat on the bones is also sparse.
So the next time you are at a BBQ, enjoying a plate of spareribs, you can amaze everyone with your new knowledge of spareribs!
