Certification

Certified Humane® by Humane Farm Animal Care (HFAC).
Stringent audits ensure the animals are calm, relaxed, and well cared for throughout their entire lives. Cattle prods, cages, crates, and tie stalls are strictly prohibited.
The animals are free to roam and graze on pastureland, and finished with high-quality corn-based feed, with no animal byproducts, antibiotics or growth hormones.

Grading

USDA Upper Choice - due to its naturally high marbling and intense flavor, the short rib comes from the short plate for a tender, flavorful bite — making a USDA Prime Grade less critical than in premium grilling cuts.

Cooking tips

Grill / BBQ (Recommended)
Prep: Marinate for 4–24 hours. Korean-style marinades (soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger) work beautifully.

Heat: Preheat grill to high (450–500°F).

Cook Time: ~2–3 minutes per side.

Pro Tip: Sear quickly to caramelize the exterior while preserving a juicy interior. Do not overcook—medium-rare to medium yields best texture and flavor.

Broiler
Setup: Position oven rack ~6" from the broiler element.

Broil Time: ~3 minutes per side on a foil-lined tray.

Finish: Let rest for 2–3 minutes before serving.

Stovetop (Cast Iron or Griddle)
Heat: Medium-high to high heat until pan is smoking slightly.

Cook Time: ~2 minutes per side.

Enhancement: Finish with a brush of sesame oil or a soy glaze for added luster.

USDA Prime Beef

Questions about this Nordic Selection

What is USDA Prime?

The highest grading of beef granted by the USDA. Less than 2% of beef are given a Prime rating.

Prime meats are well-fed, young cattle with "slightly abundant" to "abundant" amount of marbling.

What is Certified Humane® by HFAC?

The Humane Farm Animal Care organization is a non-profit with a goal to improve the lives of farm animals by expanding consumer awareness, driving the demand for kinder and more responsible farm animal practices.

Can I get it fresh, not frozen?

Yes! If you are willing to wait.

Most Nordic Selections products are available to us fresh, but we do not source them on a weekly basis like our Nordic Catch seafood.

So we must freeze most of it between order cycles.
