Kurobuta pork spare ribs

Has anyone ever cooked these? Picked a small rack up at high end grocery yesterday, cooking them tomorrow. They are smaller than a normal rack. Battery is dead on the camera and I'm heading out the door, or I would take a pic. Will try to put one up later.

As a side note, please keep my fiance in your thoughts and prayers. He is having another melanoma removed today (his second in 2 years). They were going to do it in the office yesterday but it is bigger than first expected, so we are off to the hospital today. But at least it is still outpatient surgery.

    Teresa, your fiance will certainly be in my thoughts and prayers.

    I can't wait to see how your Kurobuta spare ribs come out. I'll be very curious regarding the cook time and your comparison to other ribs. I've never had Berkshire ribs. Yum, heritage pork!

    If the weight on the rack is small, assume a faster cook. I've had a number of racks of ordinary ribs that weighed less than market average, well under 3 lbs trimmed. They have been over-done at 4.5 hours. Although fattier, I'd expect a similar problem with kurobota.

    Best on the outpatient op. My father-in-law had several removed, and there were no further problems.
