Double DP rubbed 2-2-1 pork breast ribs ... pork belly on a stick

... at least that sort of what it tasted like as an end result, very tasty.

Some pork breast ribs last night, cooked 2-2-1 at 125C/250F with cherry smoke. Rubbed with 1tsp each of Dizzy Pig Tsunami Spin and Dizzy Dust, 2 tsp of cider vinegar for the wrap stage and Smokey Carter chipotle and bourbon sauce at the end. Lovely stuff. Served with sweet potato cooked underneath the ribs for the final 2 hours in Dizzy Pig Pineapple Head and butter mix.

Cooking above some sweet potatoes:


Slathered with the chipotle and bourbon sauce:


Ready for carving:


Cut into portions:


Served with the sweet potato:

    I guess they may have a different name in different countries? What would you call them?

  • Thanks, folks.

    @billt01 I contacted the butcher about the exact cut. They responded with this:

    The spare ribs have all the meat stripped and left on the belly.
    The meaty/breast ribs only have the skin and fat removed.

    So I think the breast ribs are effectively pork belly on a stick, with the skin and fat layer removed.

    @Stormbringer that looks like it would be a really fun market to go shop in. I take it you’ve been there?

    I haven't been there unfortunately, it's a long way from us. However they do mail order within the UK, so I order a bunch of stuff and stock up the freezer.

    Interesting cut. I'm with @Dobie haven't seen it on display before but, if I do I'll grab some.
    Regardless of the proper name or  what have you I would call them delicious! Nice job on the ribs along with pairing up sweet potatoes.  Sweet potatoes egged also?

    Yep, they were cooked on the lower level in the Big Green Egg drip tray with DP Pineapple Head and butter, wrapped in kitchen foil. I cooked this in the large, in hindsight could probably have done it in the MMX. I put the sweet potatoes in after 3 hours.

    If you have a good butcher and are willing to pay a little extra I think these could be a special order. @Stormbringer, did these have the skin on them?

    The top skin layer and fat was removed by the butcher. The membrane was still on, I removed that.
