Baby backs, large or small size?

[DavidD]

I bought some bb ribs and the pkg was 3 lbs. the bones seemed a bit large for bb. Made me wonder, is it better to pick smaller, 2 lb slabs vs large or is the quality of the the meat all the same?

When I buy baby backs, I look for racks that are about 3 pounds. To me, 2 pounds racks are a bit skimpy. I like good meaty baby backs.

3 pounds is pretty much standard around here.

I buy a 3 pack and Cash and Carry and i wont go over 9lb total weight....I try for 7-8lb total weight.
