Sorry for the bad pictures...but it's my first try at hog ribs. The bones are smaller in diameter than the store bought ones. I boiled in beer, seared them on the grill, dry rubbed with seasoning, and then baked in the oven for 3 hours.

Great taste!

What size hogs? All the hogs I've shot never seem to have enough meat on ribs to mess with.

150# range is my preference for wild hogs...a lot more meat on them than you would think....

These ribs came from a 100-120lbs hog. You'd want both racks to be enough for two people. I could see where 150lbs would be the sweet spot.

we love them. All sizes. If it's a small rack, it's an appetizer . I always keep some ribs in the freezer. I don't boil them or anything, just trim them pretty well, meaning I leave a layer of fat but usually trim the thickness of it. Then just season or marinate just like any ribs and either grill or smoke.

I BBQ a lot of pork ribs, but love to fry them. Separate the ribs, season, fry in peanut oil until they have good color and start to get crispy. I often like them more crispy. Dust with a little more seasoning as soon as they come out of the oil. Thank me later. up For frying ribs I prefer pigs from 50-150 lbs. Bigger than that and I will normally BBQ or de-bone for sausage.
