BB, or Spare?

[gethenet]

IM wanting to know what you guys prefer...and why

IM a baby back guy myself...because I have never beenable to do spares to where there not to fatty for me

 

[desertlites]

I the same way-I prefer bb

Buy the spares, trim mercilessly and save for sausage. End up with "BB's" plus the bonus of sausage fixins' and less money.

You guys aren't cooking them long enough...More meat on spares!!

 

[desertlites]

yes i do agree more meat& ya prolly not trimming enough and cook-this last batch kinda turned my off on ribs-to rich for us.maybe I think of the babies I did before that turned out great.

I vote for BB. Course just ate some and they were great so I might be biased. Course I'm not going to turn down spares if they are offered.

I like the St. Louis Style spares over BB, myself. More meat and they are cheaper.

 

[homebrew & bbq]

I prefer the spares for the same reasons the others have said.

Since I've been using the 3-2-1 method for them a lot of the fat seems to cook out of them leaving them almost as lean as the baby backs.

 

[low&slow]

I prefer bb's too. But they are $3.99lb here and spares are $1.99lb. More meat on spares. And like Rich said, trim them down to bb's and put the trimmings in Dutchs beans or chili.

Did you run into those "enhanced" ribs??? Those things are nasty, no proper way to cook those!!

 

[walking dude]

should be a poll conducted on this topic

SPARES........more meat and costs less............just trim em up like St. Louis............youtube has a show how-to video

[desertlites]

yes I did trim to st. louis style-pig candy and pork saved for gumbo -were on sale at store I always shop at by the #-they were pretty fatty& rich in taste-didn't come in a box or salution(sp).
