Country style ribs (Texas Roast)

[cansmoke]

I smoked up a rack of country style ribs or Texas Roast as it is called in this part of the world. Seasoned them up and put into the electric smoker for 3 1/2 hours first at 240 and then down to 235. I fired up the offset and finished the ribs off indirect. The potatoes went into the electric and then down on the coals in the offset. I used maple wood chips. Ribs came off at 180F I could have pulled them a little sooner but no complaints. You know the food is good when there is NO conversation at dinner.

We made a loaf of beer bread as well. (a quick cook bread where the leavening agent is beer)

I may get kicked out of this illustrious group but we prefer country style ribs to back or side ribs. MORE MEAT!

Understood and just kidding. My mother-in-law was from (East Brady) the same town that Jim Kelly is from, and I saw him play in person when we both were in high school.

Are those the East coast style of 'country ribs' that are cut from the rib end of a bone-in pork loin? We get those occasionally, but I see country 'butt' ribs more often.

Thats kinda what it looks like to me too. I see them a lot around here . butt ones are the best. But we also have some here that are cut from the tail end of a boneless loin. Butterflied and then cut into strips.

@cansmoke , thats a fine looking meal. I sure could eat a plate of that!

Looks tasty. I don’t see it cut like that around here.

I’ve never seen CSR’s with a bone in them. Around here they are just strips cut from a butt. Very interesting & they sure look good!
Nicely done!
