Dry Rub Ribs St. Louis Style Per Lb

Seasoned St. Louis style pork spare ribs with a savory dry rub blend. These ribs have been trimmed to remove cartilage, creating uniform portions that are perfect for grilling or smoking. The pre-applied dry rub typically includes a balanced blend of spices, brown sugar, and seasonings for a classic BBQ flavor profile without requiring additional preparation.

St. Louis style ribs are spare ribs that have been expertly trimmed into a uniform rectangular shape, providing meaty portions with excellent meat-to-bone ratio. The convenient pre-portioned cuts make serving easy, with each piece ideal for 1-2 servings depending on appetite. These ribs are sold by the pound from Costco's service deli counter and come ready to cook.

Best prepared using low and slow cooking methods such as the 3-2-1 smoking method (3 hours smoking, 2 hours wrapped, 1 hour with BBQ sauce) or a two-stage approach starting in a 275°F oven for 2.5-3 hours until reaching an internal temperature of 200-205°F, then finishing on a hot grill at 400-450°F for caramelization and char. The ribs are done when the meat is tender enough to pull easily from the bone while still holding together well. Popular cooking techniques include smoking on a Traeger or pellet grill, oven-roasting followed by grilling, or using a slow cooker.
