Short Ribs, Cooked
Short ribs are a flavorful cut of beef from the rib or plate primal, characterized by rich marbling and connective tissue that becomes tender through slow cooking. When braised or stewed, the collagen breaks down into gelatin, creating a succulent texture and deeply savory flavor profile ideal for hearty dishes. This protein-rich cut provides substantial amounts of iron and B vitamins but is notably high in saturated fat due to its intramuscular fat content.
