Fall-off-the-bone beef for a slow Sunday.

A 2 lb pack of grass-finished short rib from Engler's cattle. Short rib is a working cut with plenty of collagen and fat between the bone and the meat, which is exactly why it turns silky after a few hours of low heat or a long smoke.

All that connective tissue becomes gelatin as it cooks, the same nourishing stuff in bone broth. The fat is from a grass-fed, grass-finished animal, so it carries more omega-3s and CLA than feedlot beef. No grain, no feedlot, no added hormones or antibiotics.

Who this is for

  • You have a smoker or a Dutch oven and a free afternoon
  • You want gelatin-rich meals for joints, gut and skin
  • You make Korean-style galbi, braised ribs or birria
  • You want a cut that feeds a table without a steak price per person

How to use

Season generously and braise at low heat for three to four hours, or smoke low and slow until a probe slides in with no resistance. 2 lb pack, bone-in.

From Michael and Mary Engler's fourth-generation family ranch in Sonora, in the Sierra foothills east of Modesto, raised on regenerative pasture.
