The boy has been craving some ribs so tonight it was baby backs!!

We just LOVE the supplier of these ribs….they are smaller, have no loin meat, and have the membrane removed.

Thanks for viewing our winter time BB dinner snack!
Put me in coach! I'd be all over these.
 
Thanks for the update on the amounts. I'm absolutely giving this a try! And saving it as a modified version of Jeff's Rib Rub in my index.
 
I'd sure like to try these. Everything around here has part of the loin on them which is why lately I've been steering towards St Louis cuts. Wish their meatandpotatoes on-line site would sell then in individual packs vs 2/ package. Only two of us here and not that fond of thawing enough to pull apart and re-freezing the 2nd rack for later.

Welcome dw! It’s a nice variation, I also us this same rub on wings. It’s magic!

Before we came across these I would trim off the loin part….then would cut in the 4 bone sections and vac seal meal size for the freezer….makes it easy that way….in didn’t thaw them just ran under the faucet enough to get the vac bag off, then mustard, season, and on the smoker frozen….added about 25-30 to the cook and good to go!
