Ok...I have a dilemma or a problem...not sure which. I am trying to find out why the ribs I buy do not seem to be as thick as when I get when I am at a BBQ joint or what I see posted here. I just got some from my local butcher, but they seemed really thin and expensive $4.49/lb for SLC. There were a few meatier ribs, but still seemed like they could use more meat. The slab was about 2lbs.
I see Costco has a very nice looking 3 pack of SLC ribs at about $20 for the 3 slabs, but not sure of weight. When I was in Atlanta in the beginning of Dec., we ate at a place called Fox Bros......Man was that GOOD! The ribs were extra thick, the wings were smoked to perfection...the beans rocked and the sweet tea was the best I ever had.
How can I purchase ribs that meaty? I know this seems like maybe an impossible question to answer, but I would love to know where the places like that get their meat.
Any my help would be appreciated!
thanks in advance
