What are Chinese ribs made of?

Published in Chinese Cuisine 1 min read

Chinese ribs, particularly those prepared in the style of char siu, are typically made of pork. More specifically, while the most common cut used for char siu is thin strips of fatty pork shoulder, ribs are also used to make Chinese ribs. This makes them a popular finger food option. Chinese-style barbecue spare ribs are a type of siu mei, which are Cantonese-style roasted meats often seen hanging in the windows of restaurants in Chinatown.
