[FROZEN] Ruston Butcher - Boneless Short Rib 3.5mm Cuts 250g

These thinly sliced, high-quality Irish beef short ribs are versatile and can be cooked in various ways. Here’s a step-by-step guide to using them:

1. Preparation

• Defrost: If the short rib cuts are frozen, defrost them in the refrigerator overnight. Alternatively, use the quick-thaw method by placing the sealed package in a bowl of cold water for 30-60 minutes.
• Pat Dry: After thawing, pat the slices dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. This helps in achieving a nice sear when cooking.

2. Marinating (Optional)

• For Korean BBQ or Yakiniku: Marinate the slices in a mix of soy sauce, sugar, garlic, sesame oil, and black pepper for at least 30 minutes. You can add some grated pear or apple for extra tenderness and flavour.
• For Stir-Frying: Use a mix of soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and a splash of rice wine vinegar. Let it marinate for about 15-30 minutes.

3. Cooking Methods

• Grilling (Korean BBQ/Yakiniku):
1. Preheat your grill or BBQ to high heat.
2. Place the short rib slices directly on the grill. Due to their thinness, they cook very quickly—about 1-2 minutes per side.
3. Grill until both sides are caramelized and have a slight char for the best flavour.
4. Serve immediately with dipping sauces, rice, and side dishes.
• Stir-Frying:
1. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a pan or wok over medium-high heat.
2. Add the marinated short rib slices in a single layer. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until they are browned and cooked through.
3. Add vegetables (like bell peppers, onions, and broccoli) and stir-fry together for another 2-3 minutes.
4. Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
• Pan-Searing:
1. Heat a grill pan or regular frying pan over medium-high heat.
2. Add a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.
3. Place the short rib slices in the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until browned and caramelized.
4. Serve with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad.

4. Serving Suggestions

• Korean BBQ Style: Serve with rice, kimchi, lettuce wraps, and dipping sauces like sesame oil with salt and pepper, or ssamjang (spicy soybean paste).
• Stir-Fry: Serve over rice or noodles and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
• Tacos or Wraps: Use the cooked beef slices in tacos or wraps with fresh veggies and sauces for a fusion meal.

5. Storage

• If you have leftover slices, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 2 days.
• Once opened, use the thawed beef within 72 hours.

Tips:

• Avoid Overcooking: Due to the thinness of the slices, they cook very quickly. Overcooking can make the beef tough, so keep an eye on it while cooking.
• Marinate for Extra Flavour: While the beef is flavourful on its own, marinating adds depth and tenderness to the slices.

This versatile product is perfect for a quick, delicious meal, whether you’re grilling for Korean BBQ or making a hearty stir-fry!
