Pork Loin Ribs

Average Weight Per Pack 1.8 lbs

Pork loin ribs, often called baby back ribs, come from the upper portion of the pig’s rib cage near the loin. They are shorter, leaner, and more curved than spare ribs, with tender meat between and over the bones. For the best results, remove the thin membrane from the bone side, season the ribs with a dry rub or marinade, and cook them slowly at a low temperature until tender. They can be baked, smoked, or grilled, then finished with barbecue sauce if desired. Pork loin ribs are safely cooked when they reach an internal temperature of 145°F, though slow cooking them longer can make the meat more tender and easier to pull from the bone.
