And fully cooked whole slabs of baby back ribs.<\/p>\n<p>The pulled meats are in the refrigerated or freezer cases of your grocer; they come in one pound tubs, and rings up at about .43 cents an ounce.\u00a0 I purchased the pulled pork in sauce, and it can be heated (it&#8217;s fully cooked already) in the microwave or stovetop.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a considerable amount of meat in the sauce.\u00a0 The BBQ sauce itself is thick and fairly sweet. (Ingredient list below).\u00a0 The meat has an authentic pulled &#8216;cue&#8217; taste and texture.<\/p>\n<p>I ladled it out onto a <a href=\"https:\/\/turano.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Turano<\/a> sandwich roll, a popular Chicago brand.\u00a0 \u00a0It&#8217;s a bakery type roll, soft but substantial enough to hold &#8220;wet&#8221; meats.
