Short ribs rack

Short ribs are a cut of beef taken from the brisket, chuck, plate, or rib areas of beef cattle. And, as a rack are easier for grilling and smoking. They are not the same as beef ribs, short ribs are shorter and flatter while the beef back ribs are longer and curved.  Short ribs will have less meat because they come from the chuck primal but they can be grilled, braised, or pan-seared.  Photo courtesy of Beefitswhatsfordinner.com
