About Beef, rib, shortribs, separable lean and fat, choice, raw
Bone-in beef short ribs, choice grade, raw with all separable fat included, are among the fattiest raw beef entries in the USDA database. The fat content is very high and protein is comparatively low because so much of the weight is fat and bone-adjacent tissue. What's there is deeply marbled, collagen-rich muscle that becomes extraordinarily tender after a long braise. This is not a lean protein source - it's a rich, indulgent braising cut best enjoyed occasionally.
