A guy called to leave a cooler of venison at my house. He said there was a rack of deer ribs in there too. What the fark am I supposed to do with those?
I smoked a rack before when I first got started. They turned out ok. As far as being too lean, you can lay strips of bacon on them to keep them from drying out. I would also use some foil. You can just grill them. Or, cook em up and toss to the dogs. They would love you forever.
I was on a canoe trip last March and my buddy brought out some deer ribs and cooked them over the open fire pit. He had a basic rub of salt pepper, onion and garlic powder. Not much fat, not much meat but great tasting. Enjoy!!
Only way I have had them that was fit to eat was cooked directly over the fire. They were tough and not much meat, but atleast we didn't waste much time cooking them.
