Beef Short Ribs

Beef short ribs can come from multiple parts of the cow, including the ribs, brisket, chuck or plate regions. When taken from the rib section, they are also known as back ribs or dinosaur ribs, due to their size and meatiness. Because the meat is filled with collagen that needs to be broken down and tenderized, braising is one of the best options for cooking beef short ribs. They may also be grilled, but you should marinate them for a bit beforehand.
