How do you prefer to eat pork ribs? Which kind, and how prepared? If you compete, please check box #7, so we only get answers from back yard cookers or their guests. You only get one choice for favorite type, and for how they are prepared. Again, if you compete, select the final option as we know you have a requirement for the judges.

I like both SLCs and BBS and don't care much either way--fall or bite off, but I picked BBs/bite off.
I notice we can't see who voted for each choice. Is this a new feature?Last edited by Willy; February 4, 2019, 05:37 PM.

jgg85234 Regarding the "public" option", I have always assumed that it referred to letting folks see the vote totals. It never occurred to me that it had to do with individual voters...so, I'm kinda in your camp. Surprised to see what it really means.

Willy - I've seen bulletin boards (don't remember if they were vbulletin based or some other software) that marking them public literally meant that. Something marked public was visible to people who weren't even members of the forum. That memory is why I just skipped over that option when I created the poll.

Interesting result so far. Just from the discussions over the years, I (wrongfully I guess) assumed that Baby Backs would get the highest vote total. SLC is solidly in the lead.
I voted spares (and I'm the only one so far), only because I like removing the tips and cooking them separately as a snack for the cook. What I serve is always SLC to guests and family. I find it difficult to be consistent with Baby Backs, as the amount of loin meat left on top of the bones varies considerably from one rack to another. It's too easy to dry out that meat (which cooks quicker).
I put the rubs on (MMD is a favorite), and learned a trick from the Strand Café in Vienna. Serve with a few varieties of sauces so people can choose and try different flavors. Wish I could find those serving boards, and really wish I could get Budvar Frisch Vom Fass (on tap) in the US. They always served 2 racks, and while they called them spare ribs, they were SLCs. Great view as well.
Best regards,
Jim

Well. I buy full spares whenever possible, but always cut them down to St. Louis, which leaves me with the wonderful rib tips for other cooks!!!
