marinated dry rubbed smoked pork ribs

[Petros]

The elk cuts we inherited when Numnber 1 Son's associate could not transport them to new quarters did not include ribs, but were tasty though lean and a bit fine grained.

.....I don't know how much fat they carry on their ribs. I have never been in on the skinning part, only the packing out part.

It is not fat on the ribs but fat in the ribs that is the problem. There is multilayering and the fat is between layers. and/or marbled in the meat hence it cannot be trimmed off and must be reduced by the choice of cooking technique.
