Angus Grass Fed Beef Short Ribs

These beef short ribs are a richly flavored, slow-cooking cut prized for their deep beefiness and tender, succulent texture once properly prepared. Cut from pasture-raised Angus cattle, these ribs offer a satisfying balance of meat, fat, and connective tissue that transforms beautifully during long, gentle cooking. The 5.5-pound portion is ideal for braising, roasting, or smoking, making it well suited for both home cooks and foodservice applications.

Short ribs excel in low-and-slow preparations that allow their collagen to break down into a silky, luscious mouthfeel. When braised, they become meltingly tender and develop concentrated flavor in the cooking liquid, making them ideal for stews, red wine braises, or Asian-inspired preparations. Their grass-fed profile brings clean beef flavor with subtle herbaceous notes, allowing seasonings and aromatics to shine without overpowering the meat itself.

Silver Fern Farms sources its beef from family farmers across New Zealand, where cattle graze freely on grasses and clover nourished by volcanic soils, pure water, and fresh coastal air. Founded in 1948, the company is known for producing premium beef, lamb, and venison while maintaining strong commitments to animal welfare and environmental stewardship. By following the principles of the five freedoms for animal care and participating in New Zealand’s Climate Leaders Coalition, Silver Fern Farms unites flavor, traceability, and responsible farming in every cut.
