The word for ribs?

Does anyone know the Spanish word for ribs (as in the food, barbecue ribs I guess)? I checked in the dictionary but they don't have it there. Thanks! cheese

barbacoa is the word for barbecue.Maybe they combine the two words. I think we in America used to say barbecued ribs but have shortened it to just ribs over time.
