Best way to remove membrane from lots of ribs?

[scarbelly]

All of the above - I have done every single one but my favorite way is to have Mrs Scar do that part

I used to use a spoon handle.. But now I use my wife... I told her she is now my sous chef and taking the membrane off is a  sous chef Job!!

  She has not caught on yet

That aint legal!!!

Use the Graduating class, make them work for their food,, you could always use a power washer,, lol,, j/k  knife and paper towels here

This may not be the Politicly Correct way of doing it but I run the membrane side under some hot tap water for a few seconds and with paper towel for grip it peels of like Buttah!! The warmth from the water melts the conective fat just enough to loosen it from the  bones and meat.

Give it a try!

SOB

I gotta give this a try! Thanks Buddy!

If you have alot use catfish pliers.

  That's what I use.

They get the job done quick,

Good call Mike

Sorry, I gotta call

 on that picture.  That's gotta be photoshopped.  I've never been able to get that type of results.  I'm definitely gonna try SOB's method.  Alelover, I'm just kidding.  I'm really envious though.  That picture actually belongs in all instructions concerning the membrane location and removal.

I agree with the Costco suggestion. If you live near one, getting the baby backs from there is really convenient. The ribs are cheaper and the ones I have done have always been very good. I must say, however, that one time, one of the racks didn't have the membrane removed. Only time that's happened, though, so no big deal.

That is the method that works best for me also!

slide the flat side of a knife between the membrane and a bone just enough for you to get  your finger in there.  Lift the membrane up enough to be able to grab it with a paper towel.  The membrane should peel right off

+ 2 this works for me too!
