Locally here in NC, Smithfields has a chop cut thick bone in
that shows up on the shelf now and then. Even better when
when they are Red Sticked and I take them home and introduce
them to my CI Dutch Oven. Nothing wrong with the lump way,
mostly this is one a work night.

Your spices and wood sound right on.
