Brining Country Ribs?

Options
I've read on the site that you can have an overcook situation very easily with the so called boneless "country ribs", mainly if they're lean and not have a significant fat content. Would brining them help any, if they were to be egged low and slow at, say, 225/250? It's either that or grill them, I guess.

    Depends on were the ribs come from. Usually they are cut from the shoulder, so they are really just strips of pork butt. Sometimes they come from closer to the loin, so the dryness issue may apply.

    Brining will help.
