Tesco's meaty ribs

Post by PDC7 »

A while back I got some of the tesco individual meaty ribs from their in store butcher dept, I today found out that you can buy full racks of the meaty ribs and the pack I saw today was only £12 and you can have them ordered in. I've had the ribs a few times and they are always decent, definitely worth checking out!

Ive had these quite a few times, in my local they normally have vacuum packed ribs, which are the same that you speak of but at £7-8. Plenty of meat on them too.

Haven't seen them before, but £12 is mighty expensive for a rach of spares. My butcher only charges around £6, and if you can get to a bookers/cost co type place then you can pick up ribs for much less.

The price is all by wheight, the pack I was shown was very large, as a rib cage they were wide and the ribs were very long, you could get them for a lot less, but having eaten this ribs and knowing how much meat is on them I would still recommend them, the pack I had a price on was £11.38 and was 2.3kg, I know places like tesco are never the cheapest but knowing what I'm getting is good consistent quality, I'm happy to pay extra for that

I picked up a pack with 4 racks of ribs from costco for about £12 - they were nice enough.

The ones from Tesco I bought that were vac packed had the belly still attached so they had plenty of meat on them.
