Great Membrane Removal Tip
« Reply #-1 on: May 28, 2015, 02:56:19 PM »
A BBQ Brethren member (Thingfish) came up with an ingenious method to remove rib membranes using the PBC hooks. Hope you enjoy!

Inserting the hook alongside a bone


Working the hook laterally to separate the membrane


Finishing with traditional paper towel pull

I've tried spoons, knives, screw drivers, etc. and the hook worked better for me by far. Was able to slide it under the membrane without tearing and the hook gave me a good grip and allowed me to pull up a larger section of membrane than with other tools. Plus it's fun and cool looking! But different strokes for different folks!
