Once you're done trimming, dry the ribs off with a dry rag or paper towel and go wild with your favorite seasoning or rub.

Our pigs are raised in the woods. In addition to the nuts and roots and other foraged foods they find solo, the pigs are fed lots of skim milk and a corn & soy free feed. The feed contains a blend of peas, fish meal, seashell flour, alfalfa meal, wheat middlings, kelp, probiotics, vitamins, and minerals.

How many spare ribs are in a package?
This varies by package due to weight and length of ribs, it could be anywhere between 5-12 per pack.
How long should dry rub be on ribs before cooking?
You can let the dry rub sit on the ribs for anywhere from 15 minutes to 48 hours. At the very least, you should leave it on for 15 minutes so the meat gets tender and the extra moisture is drawn out. If you want, you can also leave the ribs in the fridge with the rub on them for up to 48 hours.
