About this cut
What it is and how to use it
Short ribs are meaty beef ribs from the lower rib cage. The 6 inch cut is a thick block of marbled meat sitting on a row of rib bones. On the plant's cut sheet, short rib comes cut 3 inch or 6 inch; this is the 6 inch size. Cooked low and slow they turn tender and juicy: braise, smoke or slow cook them.
Cook’s tipBrown the pieces first, then braise or slow cook until a fork slides in with no resistance, which is well past the 145°F minimum.
