Cooking methods
Typical methods include high-heat searing or grilling for steaks, resting before slicing, and cutting across the grain when the muscle is fibrous. Because this cut sits on the rib primal (Lower portion of ribs 6–8 (plate short ribs) or ribs 1–5 (chuck short ribs)), adjust time and temperature to thickness and marbling.
