Beef plate short ribs, also known as "English cut" short ribs, are a type of beef cut that comes from the lower rib area of the cow. This cut includes meat from the top of the rib bones, as well as the intercostal muscles between the bones.

Beef plate short ribs are typically cut into rectangular pieces, with each piece containing a bone and a generous amount of meat. This cut is known for its rich and beefy flavor, as well as its tender and juicy texture. It is a versatile cut that can be cooked in a variety of ways, including grilling, braising, or slow-cooking.
