Each case has two 7.5lb packages and includes both the "drum" and the "flat" party wing. To best prepare these wings, it is recommended to deep fry from frozen at 350 degrees for 4 minutes until fried to crispy perfection.
Baby Back Ribs or St. Louis Ribs
Pork ribs are another football fan favorite! Maybe it's the fans passion for the pig skin that makes pork ribs the perfect protein for the party! Now which one to choose?
Baby back ribs come from the area closest to the spine, where the ribs meet the spine. This gives the baby back their signature curve and allows for a more tender meat. This also makes them slightly smaller in comparison to St. Louis ribs. They get their "baby" name because they are smaller than other spare ribs.
St. Louis ribs come from the area below the baby backs closer to the belly. St Louis ribs tend to be flatter, larger and more rectangular than baby backs. St. Louis ribs usually have a higher fat content which contributes to tenderness and flavor when cooked properly.
Whether you braise them, smoke them, grill them or bake them, these ribs are sure to be a winner on your game day menu!
