MOOSE RIBS 

By:  Stéphane Monette

I will always remember the day I tasted moose ribs for the first time! 

They’re not easy to find, but if you go hunting and bring back a nice catch, or if you’re lucky enough to get your hands on this tasty game meat, I highly recommend trying my recipe for moose ribs on the grill. They’re even better on the charcoal grill, perfectly smoky, but you can make this recipe on any grill.  You can also make the recipe with beef ribs, the household meat with the closest flavor profile and texture to moose.
