Hi everyone,
I went to my local butcher today to get some ribs for tomorrow. The only ribs they had in stock were "Cross cut pork ribs". I asked him whether they were baby back or spare, and he struggled with an answer...he said they were basically spare ribs with the fat taken off..? they dont really look too much different to a rack of baby back to be honest. They are alot more curved than the spare ribs i normally get, so im assuming they are baby back...
but my question is, what does cross cut mean?? they just look like a rack of ribs to me...not cut any different anyway.
