Country-style ribs are not actually ribs. This cut of meat comes from the shoulder of the pig, where it is sliced in half under the blade bone and then cut into long strips to resemble ribs. As a result, much like other tough cuts of meat, country-style ribs benefit from any type of low and slow cooking. Tender, tangy, and accented with just a hint of bourbon, these ribs are a messy, saucy affair. Bone-in country-style ribs are recommended for this recipe since it’s the bones that are packed with the most flavor (you can use boneless ribs, but they may require less cooking time).
