I did a slight variation of this recipe. no blueberries and i forgot the salt and cajun rub but the ribs turned out fantastic. I put it up on my youtube channel. I am definitely doing it again. my channel is Dakotamar if you want to see it done.

Well it was a first eating deer ribs - wish they had been meatier. Loved the blueberry bbq sauce. Your pic showcases them so moist and yummy - I think next time I will make sure the meat is totally sitting in the beer while braising and perhaps hubby overdid them on the bbq. Will share this recipe with the other hunters.

Fantasmic! This takes ordinarily tough and dry deer ribs to a culinary masterpiece worthy of a 5 star restauraunt! DH inhaled them and went for more and said they were the BEST he ever ate. Thanks Country Lady!
