If you want to savour American beef with rich oil aroma and full meat flavour, this whole piece of US Excel Choice beef short ribs is a high value-for-money choice for family gatherings, BBQ restaurants, hot pot restaurants and food service clients.

The product uses the American beef short rib cut, graded as USDA Choice, with a balanced ratio of meat to fat and natural, fine marbling.

It can be cut into thick steaks, Korean BBQ slices, thin hot pot slices, short rib cubes or chunks for stewing. A single piece of short rib can be flexibly used to make a variety of dishes, making it particularly suitable for households and food service clients who need to control cutting thickness, portion size and cost.

Product Features

USDA Choice American Beef

USDA Choice is a common premium grade of American beef in the Hong Kong market, achieving an ideal balance between marbling, tenderness and meat flavour. It is suitable for both everyday family consumption and for restaurants preparing high-quality beef dishes.

Rich Marbling, Intense Beef Tallow Aroma

Beef short ribs naturally contain abundant fat and marbling. When pan-fried or grilled, the fat melts upon heating, enhancing the aroma, moisture and texture of the meat, with a distinct beef umami taste upon consumption.

Whole Piece Packaging, Free Control of Thickness

Whole piece short ribs can be portioned according to different eating styles:

• Thick cuts can be made into pan-fried steaks or charcoal-grilled short ribs
• Sliced cuts can be made into Korean BBQ or Japanese yakiniku
• Thin cuts can be used for hot pot, sukiyaki or fatty beef dishes
• Cubed cuts can be made into garlic short rib cubes or teppanyaki beef
• Chunked cuts can be used for slow cooking, stewing and Western cuisine

For restaurants, frozen meat shops and households requiring large-scale meal preparation, whole piece packaging also makes it easier to control the weight and cutting specifications of each portion.

Vacuum Packaged, Convenient for Frozen Storage

The product is packaged in its original vacuum seal, which helps reduce contact between the meat and air during frozen storage, while also facilitating whole-piece storage, portioning and stock preparation.

Recommended Cooking Methods

Korean BBQ Beef Short Ribs

Cut the short ribs into thin slices approximately 3 to 5 mm thick, season simply with a small amount of salt, black pepper or Korean BBQ sauce, then grill quickly over high heat. The aroma becomes prominent after the fat caramelises, making it especially suitable to serve with lettuce, garlic slices and kimchi.

Pan-Fried Thick-Cut Beef Short Ribs

Cut the short ribs into thick pieces, pat the surface dry, add salt and black pepper, and pan-fry both sides over high heat in a flat pan. Rest before slicing to enjoy the oil aroma and juices of the short ribs.

Hot Pot Beef Short Rib Slices

Cut into thin slices while in a semi-thawed state; can be used for Cantonese hot pot, spicy hot pot, Japanese sukiyaki or kombu broth. After a brief blanch, the meat aroma is intense and the texture is tender.

Garlic Beef Short Rib Cubes

Cut the short ribs into cubes, fry until the surface is golden, then add garlic slices, butter, black pepper or oyster sauce and stir-fry until fragrant. Suitable to serve with rice, pasta or as a party snack.

Slow Cooked and Stewed Dishes

After cutting into larger chunks, can be used for red wine braised beef, tomato stewed beef or Western slow-cooked dishes. After prolonged cooking, the meat texture and fat flavours become more integrated.

Suitable For

This US Excel Choice beef short rib is particularly suitable for:

• People who prefer rich marbling and intense beef flavour
• Households who enjoy making BBQ, hot pot or steaks at home
• Clients who need to portion in bulk and prepare meals in advance
• Korean BBQ restaurants, hot pot restaurants, Western restaurants and food service clients
• Buyers who wish to control beef thickness and portion weight themselves
• Hong Kong clients looking for high value-for-money whole pieces of American beef short ribs

Thawing and Portioning Recommendations

It is recommended to place the short ribs in the refrigerator to thaw slowly. When needing to cut into BBQ slices or hot pot slices, portioning can be done while the meat is still semi-thawed and firm in texture, which makes it easier to cut neat and uniform thin slices.

If the whole piece cannot be used at once, it can first be portioned and individually packaged according to the amount needed per meal, then returned to the freezer for storage, making it convenient for future use.
