A question for anybody to answer - In North America a person talks of "ribs", as @Kerry Beal has above. When using that term, are the ribs always pork? I ask this as in my country we specify either pork ribs or lamb ribs, as both are freely available.

There was lamb on this menu (which can be unusual I find in north america). But I'd say it's fair to say pork unless specified - and the other option would be beef ribs rather than lamb ribs - they are as rare as hen's teeth in this part of the world.
