What to do with rib trimmings
Posted on 9/10/22 at 7:22 pm

My smoked rib preference is St Louis style. Most of the time, however, the full spare rib plates are on sale cheaper than the prepped St. Louis ribs so I buy those and trim them down. I have always discarded the trimmings but it has always felt like an awful waste of good meat.
What would y’all do with the trimmings?
I was thinking about marinating and searing them into a gravy.

I just throw them on the smoker and snack on them as they are done. Why throw them away?

I throw them on the grill too.

Grill and put them in a jam.

Grill the trimmings. Snack on some and use some in the baked beans

Deep fry like a pork chop.

I don't always cut them St Louis style, but when I do, I definitely smoke them with the rest. Some bits are done quicker than the ribs, so you get interim tasters. Win.
I like the frying idea though.

That's a great idea!

I made chili today with smoked rib trimmings.
Will do again.

You could also save it and throw it into your Sunday gravy.

I trim spare ribs before I smoke & smoke it all …. Eat ribs and freeze other trimmings for peas & beans.

Just smoke the whole thing. As others said, there are plenty of things to do with the meat you would normally trim off.

Last time I did spare ribs, I made some Asian style sticky burnt ends with them. Turned out great

I do this with my rib tips after trimming spares. The only thing I don't like about it is having to deal with the cartilage when eating the finished product.

A lot of time I use the trimming when I want to try out a new rub or seasoning. That way if I don’t care for it I didn’t waste a rack of ribs.

My preference is St. Louis Style also. I just smoked two racks of spare ribs last week that I got from Walmart for $1.97 a pound. I thought about cutting, but decided to not.
At Sam's Club the baby backs and spare's are the same price at $2.89 a pound. They want $4.18 for a pre-seasoned racks of St. Louis Style ribs. I will buy baby backs.

A lot of people grind the trimmings and make sausage with it.
