Trimming spareribs

[JeffJ]

I find removing the rib tips to be a royal pain. If I find 'em already cut St. Louis style, I'll buy them every time.

Looks fine to me, I get a lot of spares, and usually trim em down, keeping the trimmings of course as per my pit fellows!

If you do trim it is good to be clinical on removing the rib tips so as not to surprise the uninitiated, if they are expecting single bone rib eating.

Looks like a great set of ribs - both before and after! I do like to have spares trimmed to St. Louis style -- I think the presentation is nicer. I do the work myself because in my neck of the woods, I have yet to find a butcher who trims them the way I want them.

And so it begins. LOL

the breast bone for black eyed peas and rice, the other trimmings for beans.
