    Baby Back Ribs - Price per pound?

    What would you pay for sealed Baby back ribs? or fresh?

    I paid $5/lb for "cyrogenically sealed" baby back ribs.

    Sam's Club had them $2.70/lb case price or $2.99/lb for individual cyro packs last week when I looked. I've paid over $5/lb fresh locally.

      My local grocery store wants to charge $4.99 for BBs, but they're on sale periodically for $3.29. St Louis or spares or sometimes on sale for $2.49 or 2.99. That's when I'll get them.

          I generally get mine from my local Publix, and won't buy it unless they have it at under $3 per pound.

            Some parts of the country have these:

            $1.99 per pound for back ribs, but you have to buy 30 pounds . . . That's what I call a sacrifice!

              At our local Costco, about 3-ish per pound, much less if you get baby back rib ends(as little as 1.50).

                rwalters_2 - prices here in OKC differ widely ranging from about $2.79 at Sam's to something like $5.00 at the local grocery.

                At Sam's you can get a case price of something like $2.25 but you're buying around 25 pounds at a stretch. I never buy a case of BBs unless a special guest of honor at a party requests them. I much prefer St. Louis cut spares.

                Don't I know you from another forum?

                  CeramicChef what other forum would that be? Probably not as I don't join many forums.

                  I'm thinking you're a Guru with a Kamado.

                The Kroger near my house here in Houston had St. Louis ribs for $2.99/lb today. Unfortunately my wife informed me I am no longer allowed to stock up on meat I don't plan on cooking that week.

                We had our deep freeze die once when we're out of town. It was not a pleasant situation upon return so no more freezer full of things that can smell terrible during an unforeseen emergency.

                  I feel your pain dude. When I was a kid our deep freeze died while we were on vacation. We came home to the wretched smell of a freezer full of rotten venison. Disgusting!

                In Nevada we get spares for 2.99 lb. and baby backs for 3.99 lb. at the local markets. Once in a while we might get a sale.

                  $3.99/lb is pretty typical in the grocery stores around here, with sales and Sam's typically around $2.99/lb. I don't often buy them at retail anymore, instead getting them from a local Berkshire coop (don't ask how much that costs).

                    Wow the feedback is great on this site. I did not expect so many replies. Thank you everyone.

                    I am definitely paying way to much for BBs.
                    My local butcher does t sell SLC unless I buy a case of 25lbs.
                    I have a Sam's club. No Costco. Not sure if BJ's sells meat.
                    Anyone know of a good butcher in South Jersey?
