More tender and meatier than their pork counterparts, Beef Short Ribs are a versatile cut, well suited to slow cooks, as well as marinating and popping under the grill or on the barbecue. Left on the bone for maximum flavour, these ribs promise melting quality, showcasing the rich quality of the rib meat of our grass fed beef, sourced exclusively from heritage breed herds, reared in the great outdoors.
Try in our Chef Jeff's beef short ribs with beetroot & red wine recipe.
This is a wonderful cut, on the bone for flavour, and a favourite of chefs for its versatile abilities, being at home in casseroles and slow cooks, as well as being well suited to marinating. If slow cooking lightly fry, before putting into a heavy casserole dish alongside a lightly fried mirepoix of onion, carrot, or celeriac and slow cook in red wine and beef stock.
About the cut
Also known as Thin Ribs, or as sliced Jacob's Ladder, Beef Short Ribs are popular the year round. The rib is one of the prized parts of the beast, offering flavoursome rich cuts of beef, made extra special by the use of pedigree beef breeds. Our Short Ribs are cut in the Flanken style across the bone, giving a cross section of two or more bones, and offers more meat to be held in between the ribs.
About the breed
we'll choose from our selection of available breeds
It's good to eat and enjoy heritage breed meat from British breeds, showing farmers that there is a market for their herds and flocks and encourage them to rear them. Without a demand for their meat, many breeds would die out altogether. When intensive farming reigned unchallenged in the second half of the last century, many of our traditional breeds all but disappeared because they don't take kindly to factory farming. We want to change this and help more people realise that we need to safeguard the natural biodiversity of our farm animals and to demand meat with intrinsic flavour that comes from higher welfare systems. All of our meat fits that bill perfectly.
