FAQs about baby back ribs
The membrane is a thin, almost sheer protective layer covering the bones. Some people leave the membrane on when cooking because they enjoy the crackle that it produces when cooked. Others swear by removing the membrane to allow the rubs and sauces from penetrating the meat. If you choose to remove the membrane, use a butter knife to gently separate the thin membrane layer that holds the bones together and the thicker top layer that you wish to remove. Gently pull the two layers apart, and, gripping the top-layer edge with a paper towel, tug the membrane until it separates from the rack of ribs.
A portion of baby back ribs contains 20 grams of protein, nearly 40 percent of the recommended amount of protein consumption in a given day. Baby back ribs are also a good source of B vitamins, which help metabolize food into energy and protect the heart's arteries. Baby back ribs also contain a notable amount of selenium and zinc, both of which are essential components of a healthy immune system.
That said, baby back ribs also contain a significant amount of fat, which can have negative impacts on heart health. So while there are numerous nutritional upsides of baby back ribs, it's the kind of food that's important to eat in moderation. Even sharing a rack with family and friends is a great way to enjoy the tender flavoring without adding too many inches to your waistline.
