I’m not big on drinking buttermilk straight, but buttermilk is so great for lots of recipes. And, don’t think it’s just for baking. Buttermilk uses abound so think about buying a quart next time you’re at the grocery store. You can usually find a quart or half gallon always in my refrigerator.

Since buttermilk is slightly acidic, it’s got meat tenderizing capabilities without toughening the meat like maybe stronger marinating acids, like lemon and vinegar, do. Buttermilk has enzymes that help break down the protein in meats, like chicken, pork and turkey, so why baby back ribs!

Short Ribs Vs. Spare Ribs

If you’re kinda unsure about ribs, short ribs and spare ribs, then you’re not alone. First of all, let’s establish if we have a short ribs vs. spare ribs big difference. I mean it’s like a cross-town rivalry! Basically beef short ribs are precisely what spare ribs are, but the big difference. Spare ribs come from pork. And, short ribs come come from beef. Beef short ribs usually have more meat and are larger than pork spark ribs. You can bet boneless short ribs, and these are cut from either the chuck of plate of the rib meat. The meat’s separated from the bone. The basic consensus among rib fans is that ‘boneless country-style short ribs’ really aren’t true short ribs.
