I trimmed some spare ribs and was looking for ideas on what else I could do with the meet and rib tips that I trimmed off of some spares. It is the meat on the right in the picture. I usually cook those with the ribs but this time I just saved them for another time.

I smoke them with the ribs, pull them early, and chop them up to cook into beans. They finish cooking in the beans, and add a nice porky, smokey flavor to the beans.

If I have a lot of rib-tip meat, I vacuum seal the smoked tips an freeze them to make more beans later. I can make a nice meal out of those beans and some rice.

I cook 'em & eat 'em. Actually almost prefer the tips over the bones... They work good in baked beans too. The diaphragm makes a great cook's treat while the ribs are cookin'. I don't see that on the pan?? Cheers!!!

Double jinx.:clap:
 
Smoke them at the same time as the ribs, eat em or mix in with beans. Or chop up and mix in with your smoked mac n cheese.
 
I saw a brethren post that he grinds them up and food saver freezes them by the pound for later use with meatloaf, meatballs, whatever. Another great idea.
 
Ha funny I just bought an untrimmed rack today with the same intentions! I thought of using the "leftover" meat trimmings for another dish as well, and price per pound they were $1.50 lb cheaper than St. Louis cut. So I got more meat fo less dough!

What about CHILI???! I think thats what's to become of mine!
 
I save the tips from a couple of racks and cook them on another day. My wife likes the tips better than the ribs.

I smoke them for a little while and then cook them in rice with some onions and a little salt and pepper. Call it rib rice. never had any complaints.
 
I save them and then make a filipino soup called Sinigang with them. I have also just smoked them up with the ribs and have eatten them as is.
 
cut them up and vac seal, goes into sauce when my wife makes it.. or gravy as she calls it lol
 
I use rib meat to grind and make sausage, or I'll use it in chili.
