Barbecue ribs calories and nutrition facts

Barbecue ribs are pork ribs slow-smoked or roasted until tender and lacquered with a sweet, tangy sauce, though in Memphis they’re often served with a dry rub instead. The sauce adds sugar, and a 250 g serving comes to roughly 635 kcal. Weigh the meat rather than the rack, since bones make up much of it; ribs are rich in selenium and niacin.
