About this cut
What it is and how to use it
Plate short ribs come from the lower part of the rib cage behind the brisket. They have a thick layer of marbled meat sitting on top of long bones, which makes them one of the meatiest beef ribs. Cooked low and slow, they become juicy and tender. They are popular in Texas barbecue, sometimes called dino ribs, and are also excellent braised.
Cook’s tipSmoke at a low temperature or braise until a probe slides easily between the bones, which is usually well past the 145°F minimum.
