Arizona residents love ribs.

In Arizona, the most popular choice for BBQ in the Grand Canyon State is a mouthwatering rack of ribs smothered in the preferred sauce of the majority of locals.

Ribs are typically the top choice for BBQ over traditional options such as hamburgers, hot dogs, wings, and grilled chicken. Arizona, along with 17 other states like California, Colorado, Nevada, and Utah, also prefer ribs as their go-to meat option for BBQ.

In contrast, New Mexico chose hamburgers as their top choice for grilling. Ribs were the most popular option nationwide, chosen by 19 states, but were not available on Arizona betting apps. Hamburgers and hot dogs were tied for second place, selected by 10 states each, followed by wings (6 states) and grilled chicken (5 states).

When it comes to cookout food choices, Arizonans often opt for a slab of ribs as their favorite barbecue meat, putting them in good company.
