Not sure if this is the right sub forum but...
The last 2 cryo packed rib purchased smelled pretty bad when I opened them. 1st one was a single St Louis cut rack from the local grocery store, wife said it was fine and it tasted fine when cooked. Just got a 3 pack of back ribs from Costco (sell by date of 8/10, bought on the 7th), it smells to high heaven too, again the wife says it's okay. Froze individually in freezer zip locks. Now the freezer stinks.
Being new to all this, is the smell of packaged pork normal?
If it were not for Deb telling me otherwise, I'd have returned the 3 pack, if you can do such.
If there were an on line scratch and sniff I'd give you a whiff, but alas, no such luck.
