I'd agree. Back ribs are a bigger treat than a steak.

I only eat back ribs about four times a year, and so I don't parboil
them. Parboiling is for wimps. For the next day or so, I walk around
feeling full of pork fat, but it all seems to be worth it.

and the dylan content is:

"I'm longin' for that sweet fat that sticks to your ribs"

1/2 rack of baby back ribs with "i'd gladly pay you tuesday for a
hamburger today" parboil.

Well up until last week it would have been the ribs but now that I've had
shark steak, there really is no competition anymore.

I'll take the steak. Too many variable with pork ribs. You might get a
slab that was boiled!

About as juicy as a chicken steak, but nicer.

Spare ribs have more flavor and meat than baby backs. Baby backs
are popular because of marketing hype and because it doesn't take
a restaraunt as long to prepare them.

I've always thought of baby back ribs as spareribs. They seem to have
more meat than the other spare ribs, which have a lot more fat and
longer, bigger bones. The flavour always seemed better too.

Baby back is from the porkloin rib chop area.
Small bones [riblets] are from the porkloin loin chop area.
Spare ribs are from the BostonButt [shoulder] + large rib area [below] the
backribs..

Thanks for this info. This is very interesting. I've noticed, if I get
baby back ribs that are too meaty, they taste like pork chops.

I must investigate real spare ribs. But aren't they much fattier than
back ribs?
