Title: St. Louis style flap
Post by: Stu Clary on September 07, 2015, 08:04:36 AM
Do you trim the flap?  What do you do with it?  I usually make baby backs, but thought I'd do a couple rack of St. Louies today.  I trimmed the flaps and plan to cook em up too, then chop up and add to the beans.  Will also put a bit directly over the coals and wood to create more smoke.

I just did this.  I smoked the flaps separately.  They were good, not great.  I put my beans under the flaps.  They were great!

I throw away the flap, don't care for them whatsoever.

I would have to agree with effinUker.

I usually buy spare ribs, cut them down to St Louis ribs & rib tips - I eat the tips, lot of good meat I feed the white worms to the cats & dog.  They think they're getting a treat 8)
