Creekstone Farms Prime Bone-In Chuck Short Ribs - $20 Off

[jumbo7676]

It seems like Creekstone is putting something new on sale every few days. The latest sale is Chuck Shorties for $74 (usually $94).

From their site:
This item ships frozen and cryovac packaged. Each package contains 2 full bone-in chuck short ribs with 4 bones per piece. The average weight of each piece is approximately 3-4 lbs. so each order contains approximately 6-8 lbs. of bone-in chuck short ribs.

Need to hit $100 for free shipping otherwise it's $15 to ship, so I ordered two packs.

Other current items on sale and in stock as of this post:
Prime Brisket
Prime Outside Skirts
Prime Whole Ribeye
Prime Whole Tenderloin
Prime Strip Loin

I have been, and still am, looking locally for beef bones with that much meat on them for over a year. They just don't exist in Utah. But I just can't bring my self to pay $11 (8 lbs w/ shipping) to almost $15 (6 lbs w/ shipping) a pound for beef ribs. Unfortunately, I'm not that skilled at producing killer ribs of any sort on my pellet smoker - YET! Maybe some day, but not right now.

I don't blame you. Unfortunately, all of the short ribs that I find near me seem to cost about $10/pound anyway and usually don't look very good. I really like short ribs, so I don't mind doubling the order to avoid the shipping and wind up paying about the same per pound, maybe slightly more, for quality prime short ribs than what I would have to pay for choice short ribs, maybe CAB if I am lucky.

Understood and concur - for you. I'm still a rookie at this smoking hobby and stand at least a 50/50 chance of getting it wrong. Getting it wrong on a $100 meat choice is too much for me to handle. And I don't live close enough to you to come over and see how it's supposed to be done right. 😁

Thanks for the heads up. Got the short ribs and some spares. I was going to order the St Louis cuts, but I watched this video by our guy Malcom Reed and saved $10.
