Beef Ribs
« Reply #-1 on: August 09, 2014, 12:13:23 PM »
Found this on sale today and not being able to pass-up a good deal they found their way home. Trimmed off some of the fat and pulled the skin. They will go on the smoker tomorrow after a night of salt. Not much meat to them so I will need to add something else to the smoker.





See ya tomorrow

It's sad that just a few years ago, beef back ribs used to be a whole lot better with a lot more meat.  My butcher was telling me the cryo-vacced beef ribs coming from the large processors are trimmed so close to the bone any more, that there's not much meat left on them.

So now, when I buy rib roasts I have him cut off the chine bone (which I save for making beef stock), then I trim the ribs off myself and save them for when I want beef ribs.

Otherwise I've basically switched over to short ribs, which are the other end of the ribs (by the belly) for when I want beef ribs.

It may be sacrilegious, but I prefer the flavor of back ribs to shorts.  Too bad it takes about 20 of them to put a dent in my hunger.  :D

Ribs on. I went with Fine Swine & Bovine to get a little sweet with some heat. Also found a couple of other things to go in and while at it I decided to make some Jerky

Dinner is going to be so good. Turned out great.




If these things weren’t so dang good I would never cook them again. They trim them so close there is almost no meat to them.


But look at the ones that have meat.


and the Jerky came out good too.
