Are The Ribs At Texas Roadhouse Made With Pork Or Beef?
BY Grace Haass
Texas Roadhouse serves a mean rib entree, and while one may assume it serves beef ribs to keep with its bovine theme, they are actually pork — specifically pork loin back ribs.
Commonly known as baby back ribs, pork loin back ribs are cut from the upper rib cage of the pig, just under the loin muscle. They are smaller, tenderer, and leaner than sparerib.
This doesn't mean Texas Roadhouse opts for the cheaper option, though, as baby back ribs are more expensive than spareribs due to higher demand and more hectic preparation methods.
