Not bad when on sale

Every Friday, Safeway has a bunch of items on sale for just $5 – and these always include a deli entrée. Sometimes it’s chicken in some permutation, sometimes it’s their sandwich, and sometimes it’s ribs. Lately, they’ve been featuring “rib tips“. They are usually $10.50/lb though I only buy them when they’re on sale for $5/lb.

They are pretty good. Nobody would confuse them with E&J’s, but the rib tips are tasty and not overly fatty. They can be a little tough, however. The BBQ sauce is pretty standard – what I now know is Kansas City style. Even my daughter likes them.
