1 Baby back ribs (or loin ribs, back ribs) are taken from the top of the rib cage between the spine and the spare ribs, below the loin muscle. 2  The designation baby indicates the cuts are from market-weight hogs (240â270 lbs.), rather than adult hogs (500â650 lbs.).
Since baby back ribs start at the spine, they typically are quite short with the shortest only measuring about 3 inches. The longest baby back ribs are about 6 inches though these measurements depend upon the size of the pig. They also taper with the shape of the pigâs rib cage and are curved.
