Short Ribs
Made for time, low heat and deep flavor.
Heavily marbled, bone-in or boneless, and completely unsuited to hurry. Braised low and slow, short ribs turn into one of the richest dishes in the Farm Kitchen. The Homestead and Heritage Reserve boxes are where they usually appear.

Preparation
Brown every side properly before the liquid goes in — that step is the flavor.
Best cooked low & slow.
Storage & Thawing
- Thaw beef in the refrigerator, never on the counter. Plan on roughly 24 hours for every 5 lb of a large roast, and overnight for steaks and ground beef.
- Keep it on a rimmed plate or sheet pan so any juices stay contained and away from other food.
- Once thawed, ground beef should be used within 1–2 days; steaks and roasts within 3–5 days.
- For food-safety guidance on thawing, storage times and safe handling, follow the USDA's current recommendations.
