Rib

Beef rib bones—after the meat is cut away for steaks and short ribs—still hold residual meat, cartilage, and flavour for stock and dog-bone novelty sales. In the kitchen they roast well for brown stock and can be smoked for barbecue beans and sauces. Roast until browned, then simmer. Or use meaty rib bones as a thrifty braise when enough meat remains. Strain carefully; small bone fragments can appear if bones were sawn.
