I know that a case of ribs is around 65 lbs. Has anyone tried to buy a total of 65 lbs of ribs out of the cooler (not in a box/case) and still get the case price?
Question on ribs by the case from Sam's

Gotta buy the box for the case price. Thats what I have found.

I usually feel fine with paying the extra 10cents a lb to sort. sometimes there isnt even a price difference. Especially when a case of briskets can have a 18 and a 10 in the same case. Im a little more picky than some though I guess. If I was a resturaunt, Id probably care more about price

Take a look at my post about Sam's Ribs. The Smithfield's are truly sorry. Now if you can get a case of IBT or Prairie Farms then I would do that.
I usually purchase a case at a time and that is the best deal. The ribs and butts for that matter.

The reason I asked is that my Sam's today had IBC baby backs for $2.99/lb. But the case price was $1.98/lb! :shock: I quickly asked for a case but they were out (understandably).

Talk to the meat guy and he will make a case for you. I have done it many times and got the case price. I've even been allowed to paw through the cases and pick and choose and they will weight and price them as long as you take the equivilant of a case.
Just get to know the butcher and he will work with you. Treat him like you would want to be treated and it will go a long way.

Wow, that's not much. I had read elsewhere that they ranged from 60-75 lbs. So that means I would get about four cryopacks in a case?

Full spares range from 6-9 racks per box depending on size.

Last time I got bulk ribs, I swear some of the pigs had rickets! The rib bones looked like boomerangs. Impossible to cut. I check each pack for bone straitness now.
