Muley, would you please explain what you mean by "rib meat". I was confused by the mention of rib meat as stated in the Idaho game regulation so I contacted them and was informed they were referring to the brisket. I'm sure you know the brisket is removed with out cutting into the animal so I'm worried I may be missing something here. I don't have a written explanation from the Idaho F&G and don't want to run into trouble. Are you referring to the process of cutting the meat from between the ribs?
