Mail order rib shop anyone??

[Dwight Smokem]

Okay, I've addressed this before but I'm fed up with quality of ribs I'm getting locally. Had planned a nice day of smoking two racks from Meijer (Smithfield), with an 8/25 expiration and when opened them they smelled like sour blood, like walking through an old butcher shop in August when a kid. Also, I think the cryopacks on babybacks which all seem to label "loin backs" now, are "too bulky", as in not well trimmed. Anyone have a place that ships ribs particularly they like?

Wild Fork Foods. Excellent product all around in my experience. The photo is of my most recent order. The pork ribs are in the back. They were excellent

+1 Wild Fork. I just received an order this week. Prime brisket, prime beef plate short ribs and prime tomahawk steak! Next up some St Louis pork ribs.

I might have to try this web order out for meats. I looked at the website and some of their prices are a little on the high side but a lot of them are very good. Thanks guys!

I like Wild Fork also .. only issue is they seem to be having issues keeping some things in stock and prices keep climbing. I guess that is happening everywhere though. Sometimes I just like fresh and local as well but they are defiantly a part of my regular purchase routine. If you can get your hands on the Berkshire ribs go for it! I like some of their sides also.

I just used Wild Forks for the first time as well ordered brisket, chicken and ribs, and am pretty happy with all three. For higher quality, but more expensive check out Cream Co Meats, creamcomeats.com, very good stuff.

I have a great local butcher, but they dont have St. Louis style ribs, so I bought some from Costco. Everything is going up, but I did recently put my first order in at WildFork, it arrived on time and still frozen, a big plus! I have only cooked the sausages, but did by some ribs, lamb, chicken and shrimp. They have really good prices.
I just filled my freezer with all of the above and my wife wont let me have anymore!

I have used Porter Road many times. Excellent. PR and Wild Fork are my go to’s.

The Ribs I've gotten from Wild Fork were great. I'm lucky that they have a retail store about 5 minutes from my house.

I placed my first order with Wild Fork on Friday, have some spares, back ribs, Berkshire chops, and a tri-tip arriving Wednesday. I’m really surprised how reasonable their pricing is compared to the crazy pricing in supermarkets today.

I have used the Meatery for Australian Wagyu and it's phenomenal. Thanks for the suggestions to find me a good porker

They just opened one up near me also. For the meats I've tried, I still prefer Costco but mine is sold out of a lot of stuff when I go.

The closest Costco to me is always jam packed with people, and the meat guys can’t keep things stocked fast enough. If I ask them, they almost always have what I’m looking for in the back.

I see that you found your wieners?

I’m picky about the wieners I let into my life, @Chris_G .

Oh sorry, you meant these?

I'm always looking for their baby back ribs but they usually don't stock those. When they do they are usually pre-seasoned which I don't want. They also seem to run out of brisket a lot. Whenever I've asked they've always told me to try back the next day.
