Costco Spare Rib Portions
« on: April 30, 2019, 08:57:13 AM »

I've been seeing these at my local Costco (Indianapolis) for the last few weeks.  I've never seen them before.  I'm intrigued but not quite sure what one would do with ribs the way they're cut.

Anyone have any experience with this type of rib cut?  In case the pictures aren't clear enough, they're spare ribs but cut in 1-1/2" strips (across the bone) on a band saw.

Do a google search for Korean short ribs as I think that may give you some ideas.

Aren't these in some way also the Riblets at Applebees (?).
I have cooked them hot and fast with an Asian bbq sauce but apparently did not do them right, they were O.K. but definitely needed more work.

I was thinking about Asian style, but over heat closer to 300 instead of screaming hot.  Or perhaps a little of mild smoke at first then into a covered foil pan to braise and become tender.

I was thinking smoke on low and then sous vide.
