US Beef Short Ribs from Cedar River Farms – American-style enjoyment

Juicy, intense, and unmistakable: Cedar River Farms' beef short ribs represent American BBQ culture in its purest form. This premium product comes from the USA, where the cattle are raised under strictly controlled conditions and fed a balanced grain diet. The result: a consistent, fine marbling and a flavor that leaves you with pure delight after every preparation – whether in a smoker, oven, or Dutch oven. Flash-frozen for maximum freshness and texture, the full, buttery-tender flavor that only genuine US beef can offer unfolds during cooking.

Origin: USA – Brand Program Cedar River Farms
Quality level: USDA Choice – uniform marbling, premium quality
Cutting: Short ribs, bone-in, ideal for braising & BBQ
Product condition: Shock-frozen, vacuum-packed for optimal freshness
Type of meat: 100% beef, without additives or preservatives
Preparation: Perfect for low & slow cooking, smoker cooking, sous-vide or braised dishes.
Texture & Taste: tender, juicy, intense beef flavor with a fine fat structure
Portioning: Depending on the cut, 3-5 bones, ideal for 2-3 servings.

Beef short ribs – also known as cross ribs – come from the front rib section of the cow and are a prime example of the distinctive character of American beef. Their rich marbling and high percentage of intramuscular fat create a melt-in-your-mouth texture when slowly cooked. The meat is first wet-aged, which preserves its tenderness, before being flash-frozen for shipping. This method ensures full flavor – just as if it came straight from the butcher's counter. The high collagen content gives it that unmistakable "beefy" character when braising or smoking, a quality that delights lovers of American cuts. As the meat slowly falls off the bone, an aroma reminiscent of butter, roasted onions, and nuts unfolds. Cedar River Farms represents a brand program that consistently focuses on quality, traceability, and consistency – from the farm to the final cut. These program cattle come from strictly controlled farms in the American Midwest and are primarily grain-fed to achieve a fine, creamy marbling and exceptional juiciness. Whether slow-cooked in a smoker, braised in the oven, or prepared sous-vide, the short rib demonstrates its versatility with almost any method. While the English cut (with parallel bones) is ideal for classic BBQ and low-and-slow cooking, the flank or cross-cut offers thinner slices that are perfect for marinades and grilling. This allows you to create both rustic BBQ dishes and refined gourmet creations—always with that intense beef flavor that only perfectly aged US beef can produce. Another advantage: Flash-freezing immediately after cutting preserves structure and cell sap, ensuring consistently high quality. Upon thawing, the meat is fresh, glossy, and aromatic—ready to take center stage in your kitchen. Served with a glass of robust Cabernet Sauvignon or a dark stout, it creates a culinary moment that brings the American BBQ tradition into your home.

Order now and experience the authentic taste of the USA! With Cedar River Farms' Beef Short Ribs, experience the epitome of tender beef culture. Whether for Sunday dinner or your next BBQ, this cut delivers restaurant-quality results every time. Buy now and celebrate American culinary culture with every bite.

Your questions about beef short ribs – our answers!

What is the difference between the flank cut and the English cut of beef short ribs?

The flank cut – also known as the cross cut – involves slicing the ribs thinly across the bone. This cut is perfect for quick grilling or Asian-inspired marinades like LA Galbi. The English cut, on the other hand, is cut along the bone, resulting in thick, meaty pieces. This cut is ideal for braising or smoking. Both cuts come from the same section of the rib cage but differ in texture and cooking time. While the cross cut can be prepared in minutes, the English cut develops its full flavor after several hours of low and slow cooking. Which cut is better depends on your cooking method – both are premium cuts for discerning palates.

How long do beef short ribs need to braise and what is the optimal core temperature?

For melt-in-your-mouth tender short ribs, patience is key. When braising in the oven or a Dutch oven, you should plan for about 2,5 to 3,5 hours. The exact time isn't crucial, but rather the texture – "probe tender" is the goal. The ideal internal temperature is between 90 and 96 °C (194 and 205 °F), when the meat easily pulls away from the bone with a fork. The slow cooking process transforms the tough connective tissue into soft gelatin, which creates the characteristic melt-in-your-mouth texture. Important: Let the short ribs rest for a few minutes after cooking so that the juices redistribute evenly – this ensures the result remains succulent and flavorful.

How do I store beef short ribs correctly and how long do they keep?

Our beef short ribs are flash-frozen and vacuum-packed to ensure optimal freshness and quality. Stored at -18°C, they have a shelf life of at least 12 months. Once thawed, they should be used within 48 hours. Be sure to bring the meat to room temperature slowly in the refrigerator – this helps maintain the cell structure and retain the juices. Before cooking, we recommend allowing the meat to come to room temperature for about 1-2 hours. Thanks to the unbroken cold chain, the quality remains restaurant-quality – from the farm to your grill.

Important information – so that you are happy

Note: Orders placed as part of promotions or special offers will only be shipped within the same calendar week as the order, but no later than the end of the respective month. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate future delivery requests for such offers.

Note: Freshly portioned meat instead of frozen – shipped perfectly chilled and separately from frozen goods.

Would you prefer your meat fresh rather than frozen? No problem! For an additional €9,90, we'll use high-quality ice packs to ensure your freshly portioned cuts arrive perfectly chilled, without freezing. This way, you can enjoy the meat immediately or store it in the refrigerator for a few days.

The freshly portioned meat is packaged separately from already frozen goods. This ensures that every order remains in its ideal condition, and you can be sure that when you choose "fresh," you will receive truly fresh, juicy pieces of meat of the highest quality – without any compromises.

Packaging and refrigeration instructions – with responsibility and common sense

Your order will arrive fresh, safe and reliably chilled – thanks to state-of-the-art, environmentally friendly cooling technology.

We consciously use sustainable materials, avoid printed cardboard boxes, and use discreet stickers made from recycled raw materials. This minimizes packaging waste and keeps the focus where it belongs: on the quality of your enjoyment.

Our cooling packaging keeps the desired temperature stable for at least 36 hours. Whether you order freshly portioned goods delivered at refrigerator temperature (in combination with our ice packs),

or frozen specialties shipped with dry ice – your meat, seafood or delicatessen will arrive safely and ready to enjoy.

In short: We deliver enjoyment – chilled, sustainable and with a good feeling.

Note regarding your desired delivery date – this is how to make it stress-free

You can easily specify your desired delivery date at checkout.

But here's our tip:
If you have an important event coming up – like a wedding, a birthday, a big BBQ, a concert, or (very tricky) a visit from your mother-in-law – it's best to plan in a buffer day. This gives us time to react if something is unexpectedly out of stock or if there are any issues with shipping.

For larger events, it's best to send us your order number directly by email or in the notes – that way we know everything needs to run perfectly. And it will.

Because for us, quality comes before speed. We're not a warehouse outlet selling mass-produced goods. Every product is handled by master craftsmen, freshly portioned, inspected, and carefully prepared.
And yes – that's exactly why it can happen that something is sold out at short notice.

But: Don't worry, we usually procure everything within 24 hours.

Conclusion: If you plan with enjoyment in mind, plan for an extra day. And it pays off – we promise.

Note on the refrigerant – Why we use dry ice

To ensure your freshly portioned meat arrives truly fresh, we include a small "cooling marvel" called dry ice in the package for shipping. Dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide (CO₂). Unlike regular ice, which consists of water, dry ice evaporates directly into CO₂ gas instead of melting. This allows it to maintain a consistently low temperature inside the package without any liquid water accumulating.

Why do we use dry ice?
Quite simply: We want to ensure your meat stays cool and fresh at all times – even if the package takes a little longer to arrive. Dry ice maintains an extremely low temperature, so the meat is optimally protected from heat. The result: sustainable and safe transport that preserves the quality of the meat.

What happens to the meat during transport?
Your meat is kept frozen during shipping. The cold causes the surface of the meat to contract slightly, which can sometimes result in a thin layer of ice. This may look unusual, but it is perfectly normal.

Why do ice crystals form on meat?
At such low temperatures, tiny ice crystals can form on the surface of the meat. This happens if some moisture accumulates within the packaging system or if the surface tissue of the meat is slightly moistened. These small crystals have absolutely no impact on quality or taste – they are simply an indication that the meat has been intensely chilled.

How do you maintain the full quality of the meat?
Thanks to this careful cooling process, the quality of your meat is fully preserved. Upon receipt, you can easily freeze the meat and store it for later. Alternatively, you can gently thaw it in the refrigerator and enjoy it immediately. Whether you put it straight on the grill or store it in the freezer first, you can be sure you're getting the best freshness on your plate.
