Costco Beef Short Ribs but as a roast?

[worm304]

So I have seen been searching and I see plenty of posts about the strips of boneless beef short ribs. Has anyone asked if they can get these as a roast instead of strips and if so how was the result with the method you used? Thanks!

I believe they're cut off the brisket, plate or chuck. So I guess the answer is yes.

my favorite butcher cuts them from the heart of the shoulder clod in whatever size I need for the cook , usually 6-8 pounds per chunk. I smoke mine like I do brisket with nothing but salt and pepper, and take them just shy of pulling stage so the slices hold together. They make excellent burnt ends

Nice! I think I am going to give it a go. I just hope Costco has them whole. Planning on getting a bigger chunk and halving it. I'm only cooking for my parents and don't want to do an entire brisket so I figured this would be a good alternative. Ive done plenty of chuck roast so want to try something different.

Super! Good luck with the cook!
We have Sam's club here instead of Costco (which I miss badly!) and the meat cutters there just give me a blank stare when I asked if they could cut them for me. I get mine at Harter House Markets, who are well known for their meats and still have an old fashioned meat counter. They are pricey here usually running $5.99, occasionally on sale at $4.99 per pound, but are well trimmed and cut to my specs.
