Baby Back Pork Ribs - 3.02-4.02 lbs - price per lb - Good & Gather™

The best ribs I’ve bought

When I opened them they smelled terrible. I don't recommend them.

If it can give zero star i will rate 0 … they don’t put the meat in cooler at least… temperature from the meat is room temperature and when i open it… it smell so bad … i throw this meat in trash

Package was delivered taped up and obviously not adequate to cook for dinner!!

I’m surprised at all the negative reviews, I cooked a rack recently and really enjoyed it. Addressing some of the comment I’ve read: I always find ribs packed this way have an odor when first opened, if you want a rib that’s trimmed you need to buy St. Louis style, remember to remove the membrane and if your ribs are tough you didn’t cook them correctly.

I bought these ribs on August 8th and cooked them today August 10th which was still within the best before date. The ribs smelled off when I removed them from the plastic packaging but I cooked them thinking it might get better. Instead my entire kitchen smelled like ammonia and it was worse than before I cooked them. I brought the entire packaging and cooked ribs back to Target and asked for a refund at customer service. The cashier Sydney had to call the manager and we waited at the desk. Finally after a long wait, the manager Stephanie came and said I could not get a refund because the ribs were cooked. I asked why that made a difference since I brought everything back to Target and they could see I had not consumed the product. I was not satisfied with their response and they said I could call guest relations and sort it out myself and then the manager walked off. She was very dismissive and acted as if I was wasting her time. It took another long phone call with guest relations to get my money refunded, but they did so with no issues when I explained the situation. I later found out Target has a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee on fresh items, so I am surprised at the attitude of the employees in store.

It’s rotten, smell really bad and the house is reeking still

When we opened them they smelled so bad that we had to take them outside to the trash. The smell is still lingering in my house.

These are normally pretty decent but the last time they were definitely not baby back ribs, they were spare ribs and had a lot of connective cartilage on the one side. Probably a packaging error at the processor.

Was kind of slimy out of the wrap, just thought it was how it was packaged. Smelled strange after cooking, particularly the bones. Stupid me still ate it and got food poisoned for two days after.

Not good, barely any meat, very tough

Ordered target pick up. Item provided had expired several days prior.

Barely any meat on the ribs. Also still had tips.

Expired meat smelled really bad

I was super hesitant to order this for delivery based on the reviews, but this was great. My first time cooking ribs and after learning how to remove the membrane on the back by YouTube video, it was such a simple thing to slow roast at 275° for 4 hours. Great price. Will definitely order again.

They were grisly, tough as shoe leather and tasted off - like maybe they were old or about to go bad. Not even Sweet Baby Ray's could save them. I cook first in an Instant Pot for 35 minutes(NR) and with tenderizer in the rub. I mix apple cider vinegar with water to make them super tender. Any other place I get baby back ribs they would fall off the bone! These seemed to say, "Hold My Beer" and were tougher than a Marine. I hope a few minutes in the broiler would help; they came out looking like Clint Eastwood does now. I won't make the mistake of buying again. I hate wasting food and this was a total waste.

Worst ribs I've ever purchased. Mostly gristle and fat. Very little actual meat.

Opened the vac-pak of these baby back ribs BEFORE the use by date and even though the pak was completely intact and still vacuum-sealed the ribs were already rotting. And I mean smells like a land fill bad. Since the packaging was still perfectly sealed, that can only mean the company packing these is lying about the use by date. And not just a little but a lot. Considering these supposedly not yet expired ribs were so fetid I had to immediately remove them from the house, the date on ours should have been at least 2 weeks earlier than what they put on the label. Target needs to switch to a different, more trustworthy supplier.

I purchased them on 5/10 and the date says sell by 5/11. We opened them and they smell so bad.

The meat was rotten! The cashier couldn’t care less.
