Baby Back Ribs tip


One step in prepping baby back ribs for the smoker, pressure cooker or slow cooker is removing the membrane on the back.  It's either impossible or easy...

Whoever figured out that using a paper towel to grab the membrane on the back of a rack of ribs so you can peel it off was a genius.  I'm not sure what magic happens but barehanded that membrane is slippery and adhered to the ribs at an atomic level never to be moved but once you grab it with a paper towel it gives up and comes right off.  

Another tip I have found is starting at the small end works better than the wide end.  Not intuitive to me, but clearly faster and easier.  

Now go forth and make pork! Yum.
