250#'s isn't a monster but it is still a very good bear. I would love to take a bear that size! Congrats once again

We barbecued the ribs and a couple of roasts last night. It was excellent eating. There were no leftovers.

Never heard of anyone eating bear ribs  So what were they like? .... did you par-boil them first? .... how much meat was on those ribs? |

Not a lot of meat on them. If you did not cut them up right away they would dry out and you would loose what meat is on them. Used a dry rub on them and put on the grill. They were tasty but a little tough in places. Might have tenderized them a little if we had parboiled them first.
