Individual Ribs

[DOUG3D]

Just got a pig from the local farmer and can't wait to try ribs in the bradley!

Just a couple of questions: #1. Spare ribs or country ribs (I got both)
           
                                    #2. I think they may have already separated the ribs? Was just wondering if I still treat them like a rack or need to take some    
                                          precautions?


                                     Thanks for any help!!

The spare ribs will have more surface area since they are already cut up. They will probably be done a little sooner and may get dry easier.

Country ribs are actually a pork shoulder sliced. I have only done these once and was not thrilled with the way they turned out.

I have not tried country ribs yet...  I usually save those for my red sauce and chili.  The are a lot of post in the meat recipe section.  is one I found that may help you out.

Country ribs are good but, as FLBR pointed out, they're not really ribs in the BBQ sense.  Treat them like small thick pork chops and you'll do fine.
