Bone in always equals more flavor!!!
This is my first post on this forum after enjoying it for some time. Bone-in equals better taste, regardless of the meat or the cut. Consider a good porterhouse vs a KC strip and/or a filet. The KC strip and the filet are good, but if you do not wind up picking up the bone from the porterhouse and eating the meat from the bone then you either have no taste for beef or you did not get a good steak. A porterhouse is meant to be finished with the hands just as sushi and fried chicken are finger food.
The same is true for rib-eyes vs cowboy rib-eyes, chicken breast, ham and even fish. Mother nature designed it that way and you should never fool with mother nature.
