Pork Ribs

On the rib section you have long ribs under the meat. Once you remove the loin meat it becomes the boneless pork loin. The ribs are left.
The top 5 inches of the rib is the loin back ribs( also known as baby back ribs).
The lower portion of the same rib is the spare rib.
The loin back rib is considered to be the most tender.
Both are cooked the same way--slow and low temp. Cover with a good rub and bq sauce.
If you bend the rib backward--if the meat releases from the bone easily then the ribs are done and tender. Smoking also is great for the cooking process.
All you need is a bunch of paper towels and and baked beans for a great meal.
