You may have heard about chicken wings or pork back ribs but what about chicken back ribs? Maple Lodge Farms has created this amazing chicken wing alternative. They have called them "Seasoned, Skinless Chicken Back & Ribs" but Jay Eatz is going to shorten it to chicken ribs. I have tried these a few times and would put them right on par with chicken wings. I like the white meat and the flavour that the rib bones infuse into the meat. One thing chicken ribs have over chicken wings is the price, I paid $2.09/lb (compare wings at $4.99/lb). They are also very BBQ friendly and easy to make.
I preheated the BBQ to medium. Then placed the chicken ribs rib side down on the grill.

I cooked them for about 25 minutes in total. I flipped them about 15 minutes in to the cooking time.
Then I applied a few coats of BBQ sauce to the chicken ribs and they were done.
These Maple Lodge Chicken ribs are great as an appetizer or as an entree. I served them with a side of my "Easy Oven Roasted Potatoes".
Next time you are in the grocery store and see these, pick them up and give them a try. They will surely not disappoint and who knows you might give up chicken wings for good.
