Few cuts deliver the deep, rich flavor and tenderness of yak short ribs. Cut from the lower rib section, these ribs offer the perfect balance of tender meat, flavorful fat, and collagen-rich bone. The marbling ensures a juicy, satisfying bite, making them ideal for slow cooking and braising.
What makes yak short ribs stand out is their high collagen content (especially due to free ranging out on pasture). As the short ribs cook, the collagen breaks down and the meat becomes melt-in-your-mouth tender.
By choosing our 100% Grass-Fed, needle-free yak short ribs, you’re embracing nose-to-tail eating, honoring the animal, and making the most of every part—just like our ancestors did. Our yaks are rotationally grazed on nutrient-rich pastures and never given antibiotics, vaccines, hormones, or unnecessary chemicals—ensuring a clean, collagen-rich cut.
Easy to prep and incredibly versatile, yak short ribs offer restaurant-quality flavor with minimal effort—perfect for a comforting meal or meal prep.

Yak short ribs are best prepared using high-moisture cooking methods like braising, slow cooking, or stewing. These methods allow the collagen-rich bones to break down, creating a rich, tender, fall-off-the-bone meat. The slow cooking process ensures maximum flavor and tenderness, making this cut perfect for hearty, comforting meals.
Braising Method:
- Brown the short ribs on all sides in a hot pan, then cook them low and slow in a braising liquid (such as water, broth, wine, or a combination of both) for 3-4 hours until the meat is tender and easily pulls from the bone. The result is a flavorful, melt-in-your-mouth meal.
Slow Cooker Method:
- Place your short ribs in a slow cooker with seasonings, vegetables, and a bit of broth or wine. Let them cook on low for 6–8 hours for a rich, tender dish that can be served over mashed potatoes, rice, or with a side of roasted vegetables.
Grilling or Smoking:
- For those who enjoy a smoky flavor, short ribs can be grilled or smoked at low temperatures for a few hours. While this method won’t offer the same fall-apart tenderness as braising, it still delivers incredible flavor and texture when paired with a flavorful marinade or rub.
Meal Ideas:
- Serve with mashed potatoes or polenta to soak up the rich sauce.
- Pair with roasted potatoes and a crisp salad for a well-rounded, comforting meal.
- For a twist, shred the meat and use it in tacos, sandwiches, or rice bowls.
