Country Style Pork Ribs instead of Pork Butt

Former Member

Had a friend of mine stop in Sam's today and she bought country style pork ribs instead of pork butt. Says that the butcher told her it was basically the same thing. How do you guys recommend that I cook these. Looks to be about 8 good size ribs in the package. (5.37 lbs total) Please keep in mind that I will be cooking on my Smokette with the Hickory wood I received. Thanks alot.

Pitcherjlt,

Country Style ribs can be a bit tricky. They tend to dry out it you over cook them and not be very tender if you under cook them.

I have cook them a few times and normally cook them at 225 for 2 hours with 1 piece of wood. You want them to reach an internal temperature of 175 to 180.

Let us know how they turn out.

I agree with Stuart that they can be dry. I would foil them with a little apple juice after about 2 hr in the smoker and put them back in or in the oven and match the temp. of the smoker for about 1 hr and check them. This might tenderess them.
