I think this has been a topic in the past, but I'm relatively new to the forum. My question is more specific though...
I have purchased babybacks from Sam's in the past, and it has always been easy and straightforward to remove the fell before rubbing and refrigerating the ribs... just like peeling a sticker off of something... comes off all in one piece usually. I just smoked some ribs yesterday for Father's Day. They had been purchased from Costco, and while they were very meaty and delicious, I seemed to have trouble removing the membrane the night before. I could never really get a hold of it. I almost wondered if it had already been removed. Is that the case for ribs bought at Costco? They were the vacuum-packed ribs, and I think I saw "Kirklands" on the packaging. And I couldn't really detect the papery membrane in the final product.
Loving all the information here!
