I've never had one that has been de-boned and tied. When smoked/roasted does it stay intact when you slice it?
Check your local Giant store I saw some marked down on Sunday.
After cooking, the bone needs to be removed to slice it, anyway. Publix just helps people out by doing it for them and then tying it back on. Actually, they use an elastic string. Just remove the ties and slice as usual, it will not fall apart. Other options are to remove the ties and cook as a boneless roast or cut up into steaks. Then you'll have a rack of beef back ribs to cook separately...
got one this morning. boned and tied irks me. One meat cutter said he could get me one on hte bone. They only cut about 2/3's down the bone. Saw one that looked good and just shut up and took it. might go back later this week and get one for the freezer. This one goes on the Napoleon monster rotisserie with rear infrared burner.
I had a "discussion" with the meat cutter expressing my dislike. he told me they only cut 2/3's the way down the bone, so technically they are still intact. I spin mine on the rotisserie, so it's moot.
