        C'mon Dave - buy a whole ribeye at Costco, fabricate it yourself, and save more than $2/lb. Had some tonight - the first ones that were FoodSaved and frozen. Pretty darn good.

        No doubt TB. I kinda like getting to sift through all the prepared steaks though and picking out my favorite

        I unusually do regular spare ribs. I peel then and trim some excess fat (I know. . . No such thing!) But have not yet trimmed them into SLC. I am thinking about doing it for my next cook but I'm not sure what to do with the trimmings. Does anybody have any ideas? I use my own rub recipe and my own Rum Molasses Sauce to finish them on direct heat.

          My custom is to dice them up and trim them and make a stir fry while I'm smoking the ribs. I add a dash of salt & pepper, teriyaki, soy and some brown sugar to the skillet. No measurements, it always turns out awesome. Pitmaster reserve.

        I have done BB, SLC and back ribs and I have to pick BB. To me they have a better flavor.

          We have a lot in common you & me. Stickburnin' the baby backs.

          Nice new mug shot by the way!

        I like 'em all! Having said that, when price is an issue, I get packages of baby back rib ends from my local retailer. As I'm often in an experimenting mood, I can do several different recipes at the same time under the same conditions. Or consequently, do the same recipe under different conditions. My wife prefers baby backs, so we tend to eat more of those than SLR. However, she's coming around...lol

        We don't do beef ribs often; unless, we are spending the day in the garden where they can be checked on often in long cooks. The time spent is well worth it, but we don't often have the time(we grow a great deal of our own stuff).The exception to the beef rib thing is Kalbi, as we also love Asian food. Kalbi is quickly prepared, which works out well.
