Top of the Rib
Each piece of meat is hand-cut to bring you the optimal flavor in every ounce
so we list an approximate weight for each item and then calculate the final price once
we fulfill your order. Our butchers make sure to select cuts that are within 15%
of the weight estimate and only charge your credit card based on the actual weight
Price estimate: $62.474999999999994 = (24.99/LB X 2.5LB)
Description
Top of the Rib is more marbled than a first cut brisket, but leaner than second cut and has slightly beefier flavor. It's a great roast for braising ahead and enjoying for any holiday meal. The even marbling in this roast also makes it a great candidate for smoking.
Naf’s Tips
I love Top of the Rib as a more economical alternative to brisket for the holidays. No one can tell the difference!
- Dutch Oven: Use a slow-cooker to gently braise this cut.
- Oven/Roast: Braise low and slow until tender. Do ahead: braised meats taste best a day or two after cooking.
- Sousvide: Use your electric immersion circulator to cook to desired doneness. Pat dry, then sear over high heat, 1-2 min per side, to develop crust.
