Slab (a.k.a. Rack)
A slab or rack is a row of rib bones held together by muscle meat, fat, cartilage, and connective tissue. The meat is both between the bones and on top of them. Not much meat on the back. A slab is usually 10 to 13 bones, depending on how it is trimmed, and a “cheater rack” is only nine bones.
