Anyone know where to get good pork ribs with lean meat on em consitantly?

Most of the ones I bought this summer we so fatty they were barely edible.

Anyone know of a good supplier?

I was a meat manager for SAM'S CLUB for 5 years. I was going to recomend them!!! wink.gif Basically most of the meat packers have the same product. You just have to be picky at the counter and pick what you can.. A great "rib" is their pork butt ribs.. It's a whole pork but sliced in 1" steaks then cut in half. less expensive, too. Just brown them, put bbq sauce on, stick in the oven for 300 degrees for about 2.5-3 hours..

I'll give the nod to Osseo Meats as well. Good stuff but they are a bit pricey compared to Sam's Club (or any other super market).

goldencasey - Never heard of Brother's. Where is it at? Do they specialize in anything in particular?

psegriz, I usually get my quarter of beef prossesed there,they do a good job. I just picked up a hog at peps pork between melrose and belgrade and so far so good. There is a meat market in st. michele called delmers meats, they have great ribs, but i've only had the ones they have already smoked.

    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
    • We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
