SRF Kurobuta Spares

DMW · December 2015

So awhile back SRF had a sales on pork and I picked up some spares. Tiny little things, 2.25#, but they look pretty.

Head Country rub and on the XL with cherry wood for smoke

After about 5 hours or so they were done

Verdict? What little meat was there was really good. Head Country on ribs is a winner. For the money, I probably won't order these again. The difference between these and standard ribs isn't that significant.

I have a pork collar and loin roast from SRF in the freezer I'm really looking forward to.

I thought the same. Purchased them on sale and was like, wow! Not enough to feed my boys. Grabbed a baby back rack as well. Very good but really no difference in taste to what I can get locally. Nothing like the brisket. That is way worth it to me! Thanks for sharing. I'll checkout that rub.

Head country rocks on ribs. Thanks @henapple
Have a ham on the way for Christmas.

Good review Dwayne. Head Country proven again....pricy ribs not so much. Either way they look delish!

Nice review, thank you.

Thanks. I have four racks in the freezer to do for New Years Day, maybe I'll pick up a couple sets of baby backs at the supermarket to augment them.

Yeah I'm with you man they look a little on the slim side.

@dmv what temp did you cook these at for 5 hours? have some to do myself. I usually cook BB at 240 for 5 hours straight up...do these seem to cook faster?

Ya I probably won't again either. Just no meat on them.

@loveTheEgg - Can't remember for sure, but probably around 225*-250*
