    Saint Louis style spare ribs cut ???

    I have bought the PRE-CUT Saint Louis style spare ribs from Costco and WinCo and both had the rib-tips still attached ??? Am I missing something...or is the Saint Louis cut have the rib-tips CUT off of the spare rib ???? It seems that both stores are just cutting the whole spare rib in half to sell more ribs ?

    Most I get have the rib tips. Especially a local place that cuts their own and folds them over into a tray pack. I swear the hogs must be over 500 pounds they get them off of.

      It sucks when half of the rib is RIB TIPS..... I should have known to bend them first to see if they were a cut with the tips still on as they were packed solo. My bad , I will just buy the whole spare rib from now on and trim it myself as the stores seem to cut them wrong.

    The Good-One Is A Superb Grill And A Superb Smoker All In One

    the good one grill
    The Good-One Open Range is dramatically different from a traditional offset smoker. By placing the heat source behind and under the smokebox instead of off to the side, Open Range produces even temperature from left to right, something almost impossible to achieve with a standard barrel shaped offset.

    Griddle And Deep Fryer In One

    Pit Barrel Cooker Smoker
    The flat top does the burgers and the fryer does the fries. Use the griddle for bacon, eggs, and home fries. Or pancakes, fajitas, grilled cheese, you name it. Why stink up the house deep frying and spatter all over? Do your fried chicken and calamari outside. Blackstone's Rangetop Combo With Deep Fryer does it all!
