Ribs in competition

Juicy · 08-25-2009, 08:59 PM

I was wondering what cut of ribs do teams use in competition?

Bbq Bubba · 08-25-2009, 09:03 PM

Being your in the Great Lakes area, i would advise beef ribs.

MilitantSquatter · 08-25-2009, 09:03 PM

you'll find a fair mix of both babybacks and spareribs..

some regions may have a slightly high % of one vs. the other.

cook what you cook best..

i use baby backs. i like them better becaus ethey have more meat on them and are easier to eat. so i perefer them for comps also. i also judge and i have seen more babys backs than i have the spares.

You're competing at Princeton, WI right? Then I would recommend Bubba's advice

As Vinny mentioned, you find a mix of both.

BBQchef33 · 08-25-2009, 10:35 PM

Cook what u cook best.. judges wont care and a good st louie will beat a bad babyback any day.

BBQ_Mayor · 08-26-2009, 06:52 AM

I use Loin back ribs.

Lake Dogs · 08-26-2009, 06:55 AM

LOL at BBQchef33! Seriously, cook what you cook best and enjoy eating. Rarely
has anyone gone wrong with that. MIM/MBA, around here GBA and FBA are mostly
baby backs. I dont recall ever a sparerib entry taking one of those. KCBS, from what
I understand, is a mixture. A really good rib entry of any type can win.

Hey juicy, I like the baby backs. See you guys in Princeton!

smokincracker · 08-26-2009, 12:01 PM
