short ribs

Meaty beef cut

Short ribs are a cut of beef from the rib section, consisting of short lengths of rib bone surrounded by meat.

They contain more connective tissue than other cuts, making them ideal for slow cooking methods like braising that break down the collagen into rich, tender meat: The short ribs braised for three hours until fork-tender.

Korean-style short ribs are cut thin across the bone for grilling.
