I've been a BB ribs fan till Covid hit, can no longer find them at the local grocers so I started picking up full racks and cutting them down to St Louis Style. I have a question for any others who may have done the same. The original rack weighs about 5.5 lbs, after I trim it down I end up with a tad under 2.5 lbs of the rack, and 2+ lbs of the "waste" that gets turned into sausage. Does this sound about right? I'm trimming the rack so the little bones, or whatever they are, are not on the finished rack, see pic.
FWIW, we now prefer this style over the BB's.
