A method of forming a rib-meat product and one or more rib-meat products are disclosed.

The substantially cylindrically-shaped meat portion is a continuous piece of meat originally present on the plurality of rib bones. The substantially cylindrically-shaped meat portion includes a flap portion and a stationary portion, and the flap portion has been detached from each of the first ends of the plurality of rib bones and is substantially wrapped around a stationary portion at the second end to form the substantially cylindrically-shaped meat portion.
