Beef Chuck Short Ribs

Beef Chuck Short Ribs – Cut Description

Beef Chuck Short Ribs come from the chuck primal, taken from the first five ribs of the rib cage. They feature thick, meaty plates of beef atop short rib bones, known for their rich marbling and deep, beefy flavor. This cut is best suited for slow, moist-heat cooking methods—such as braising, smoking, or slow roasting—which break down the connective tissue and render the meat tender and succulent. Chuck short ribs are prized for their hearty texture, bold taste, and exceptional performance in stews, braises, and barbecue.
