Belly ribs are hard to find where I am from. Baby backs are the common ribs you find if you are looking for pork ribs.
I found a couple meat suppliers that are willing to cut belly ribs for me. I already expect them to cut them as thin as they can otherwise they are stuck with the belly that is...
Thanks for the reply again.
Makes sense. I would love to be able to measure IT that way I can make them more consistent. I got disappointed when it didn't seem to work out. Like the IT temp wasn't making any sense, even when I measured in between the same ribs. The temp was all over the place...
