Default Rib Membrane Question

When pulling it off. Do you go all the way to the bone, or split the 2 layers?

I've always split them, and have never had a problem. Just curious if anyone goes all the way to the bone.

I split them; if you go all the way to the bone, I think your ribs have a hard time holding together when cooked...

Outer layer, so they will stay together.

Outer layer only.
I get burned thru "shiners" when I screw up and pull the inner one.

I pull the membrane, I don't see two layers. When the membrane is off, the bones are bare. I have never had a problem with a rack falling apart, unless I grossly over-cook them.
