    Trimmed spare ribs into STL style ribs. Now what?

    I just trimmed up a big slab of spare ribs turning it into STL ribs. Now I’m wondering how to cook up the parts I trimmed off any suggestions?

    Cook 'em up as-is right beside the StL racks. Or, I like to spend the time trimming the meat off the little white plastic pencil-like cartilage pieces and frying it up as a little stir-fry treat with some teriyaki or soy, garlic & brown sugar while I'm running the smoker.

    I usually trim the trimmings and make sausage with them

      I make rib burnt ends with them. Just like belly or brisket burnt ends.

        The obvious answer is Rib Tips.

        I had a couple racks with big skirts on the back the other week. Put them on a skewer and hung in the PBC. We're delicious.

        I cook them up along side the ribs. They're usually thinner and will cook much faster so that way I get some little snacks to munch on while waiting on the ribs to finish. Once cooked these also go great in a pot of beans or even in the smoked mac and cheese!!

          Chop up into 1½ or 2 inch pieces and make Chinese steamed spareribs with black bean sauce. Sometimes referred to as dim sum ribs. Delicious and a good way to use up the rib tips.

            I got a batch of Thai chili sauce from my cousin's restaurant. Gonna use that on my next set of rib tips

              I just cook them along side the St. Louis. About 2-3 hours later they are done and you have a great snack while waiting for the main course.

                I’m another one that says they are chef’s treats. Especially the flap meat.

                  Thanks for all the suggestions. Lots of ways to choose from. I went with BBQing them alongside the STL ribs. Now they are chopped up and waiting to be used in omelets, sandwiches and possibly some BBQ bean enhancements. There was a surprising amount of meat. At least three meals for the two of us.
