beef rib
Smoker's meaty prize
A beef rib is a cut of meat from the rib section of a cow, typically sold as a rack or as individual ribs.
Beef ribs are larger and meatier than pork ribs, often slow-cooked or smoked until tender: We're smoking beef ribs for the cookout.
The cut includes both back ribs (shorter, less meaty) and short ribs (thicker, more marbled).
