St. Louis Style Pork Ribs

The quintessential cut for backyard barbecue purists. St. Louis cut ribs are carved from the belly side of our pasture-raised heritage hogs, meticulously trimmed into a clean, uniform rack that cooks evenly from end to end. By removing the brisket bone and tough cartilage, you are left with a beautifully rectangular slab that features incredible intramuscular fat and a deep, rich pork flavor unique to hogs raised right on Montana pasture. That pasture-raised fat means serious flavor and a rack of ribs that stays remarkably juicy throughout a long cook. Throw them on the smoker low and slow with a simple dry rub, or bake them in the oven before finishing them over live charcoal. However you choose to prepare them, the payoff is always the same: tender, pull-apart pork with a clean, honest flavor that you simply cannot find in a conventional grocery store. It takes a little patience, but a rack of St. Louis ribs always rewards the effort. Weight: 2.25-2.5 lbs., 1 slab per pack.
