-
Place the thawed rack of ribs upside down on a flat preparation surface to expose the membrane.
-
The rack should be positioned so that the shortest bones are on the left and longest bones are on the right.
-
Holding the hexagon shaped end of the RibStick, locate the second shortest bone on the rack.
-
Using that bone as a guide, carefully slide one prong of the split end of the RibStick between the membrane and bone.
-
Be careful not to puncture the membrane.
-
Continue pushing the single RibStick prong under the membrane until the edge of the membrane reaches the joint of the two prongs.
-
Attach the cordless driver that came with your RibStick to the hexagon shaped end of the RibStick
-
Once attached, slowly begin operating the driver in a clockwise direction.
-
Gradually increase the speed of the driver after the membrane separates from the shortest rib and has completely wrapped around both prongs of the RibStick base.
-
As the membrane pulls away from the third and fourth bones, begin using your free hand to hold the rack flat.
-
You may need to follow the RibStick with your free hand to ensure the rack stays flat against the preparation surface.
-
Continue operating the driver until the RibStick has completely removed the membrane from the rack.
-
After the membrane is fully removed, your ribs are ready to cook!
-
Clean the RibStick by sliding the membrane off of the RibStick and discarding the membrane.
-
Hand wash the RibStick after use.
-
DO NOT wash the driver. If the driver is dirty, wipe clean with a disinfectant wipe or damp rag.
