Information about Korean Beef Ribs?
The ready made Korean Beef Ribs are a great cut of meat for the Barbecue or cooking on a Hotplate. These are slices of Beef Rib Bones with a generous layer of meat above & in between them. These are cut thinly around 12mm, the rib meat has good intramuscular fat through it, this adds to the flavour & keeps the meat moist. Packed in our Freezer Friendly 800 gram packs, they are great value for money.
These types of Beef Ribs are normally found in Korean restaurants, specialist Asian or Korean butchers & occasionally a Barbecue restaurant. These are a fantastic cut with much interest in the Korean community & are now becoming more sought after in Europe. Like this & many other specialist meat cuts, people normally only find out about them through visiting one of the aforementioned places or through social media.
What are Korean Beef Ribs?
The familiar look of these Beef Ribs are single round cross sections of Bone with meat in between & on one edge of the Bone. These are a cut of meat cooked on the Barbecue or Hotplate, usually marinated first with a more Asian type of flavouring.
The Korean Beef Ribs are also known as LA Galbi, this name was given to them because the local Korean Community wanted an easier solution to cutting & preparing the Beef Ribs. They had the whole racks of Jacobs Ladders pre sliced, making them ready to season & easier to cook.
The meat on our Korean Beef Ribs is the same as the “Intercostal Beef Rib Finger” meat, it has great fat marbling, giving these such a great flavour. The meat is fairly coarse & fat marbled becoming very tender when cooked because of the fat marbling rendering down during grilling or cooking.
How are Korean Beef Ribs made?
Our expert butchers cut the Korean Beef Ribs from our fresh cut Irish Grass Fed 4 Bone Beef Jacobs Ladders.
The whole Jacobs Ladders are “Blast Frozen” to –25°c immediately after cutting to prepare them for slicing into Korean Ribs (La Galbi). The bone in Jacobs Ladders are then placed into a special circular saw machine, this is then set to cut the Beef into 12mm slices. The slices are then checked before being placing into large sterile reusable plastic containers & sent to the packing room.
Our 4 Bone Beef Jacobs Ladders are parallel cut from high up on the rib cage between the Brisket & the Chuck. Only Ribs 3/4/5/6 are used, these are approximately 7 inches long. The meat is fibrous & fairly fatty with a single layer of delicious meat across the back of the Rib Rack. We choose not to use the lower section of the rib cage as they are too fatty & don’t produce the same amount of meat.
The lower part of the Beef Rib Cage is called the Flank or Beef Plate, Ribs 6-10; our expert butchers remove the whole section on the bone as a piece. We would trim or use this end for different commercial applications as they have two layers of meat which carry to much excess fat for this particular cut. These are widely used in many butchers shops to sell as Jacobs Ladders or short Ribs.
How do we pack out Korean Beef Ribs?
We pack the Korean Beef Ribs from frozen straight after cutting, placing them into Clear Recyclable Plastic Pouches (multiple slices) of approx 800g.
The system of packing used for these Korean Ribs is a called Deep Track Packing. This is an automated system that requires minimal direct handling of the meat, reducing surface bacteria transfer. The slices of Korean ribs are placed into deep pouches in neat stacks to allow for better sealing of the meat. The pouches pass through a vacuum sealing machine shrinking the protective pouch around the meat.
The frozen packs are then labelled with Full Traceability & placed into reusable plastic crates, stacked on pallets & placed back into the freezer ready for shipping to our distribution or direct to wholesale customers. The cutting process & the Freezer Friendly packs give a just cut flavour to the meat, up to 2 years after production.
All our cutting & packing facilities are BRCGS / IFS approved that make any of our meat cuts or products. All refrigerated air is filtered in production rooms, the butchers & packing staff wear fully protective clothing, these precautions reduce natural bacteria. Operated with the highest hygiene & temperature controls to ensure you enjoy the same taste & texture from all our meats.
The packaging protects the Korean Ribs from freezer burn, contamination from other foodstuffs when kept refrigerated & during delivery to your door. The Recyclable Clear Pouches hold in the natural meat juices, giving the ribs more flavour & moisture when cooking. The bags stop the meat from drying out when bringing up to room temperature before cooking.
The clear recyclable packs are made using thinner, stronger materials to help reduce our #carbonfootprint. We encourage our customers to recycle their food packaging more by making them aware that it is recyclable through social media & the information on the packaging.
We are always looking to find other methods of packaging that is cheaper & more Eco-friendly, so we can then help improve the environment moving towards a greener future. Please see this link on How to recycle plastic. We all need to do our best for a Greener future #swf_recycle♻
Are Korean Beef ribs good value for money?
Korean Ribs only have 4 small slices of bone per portion, with a good amount of meat per slice, this makes them better value for money.
The only waste from the Korean Ribs is the bone with most of the fat rendering down during cooking. The expert butchers prepare these to a high specification, as a Ready Made cut to reduce waste & give “More Meat for Your Money”.
We are able to deliver the Korean Beef Ribs at a great price because we cut these as a wholesale product. Making Korean Ribs in larger volumes at our production helps us reduce our costs per portion. Using less energy, reduced labour costs, price for packaging is cheaper through bulk purchasing & savings made on transport costs with shipping on pallets. All these savings are passed onto our customers online or wholesale.
Provenance of our Beef.
We source all our Irish Grass Fed Beef from farms local to production in Ireland. The slaughterhouses / production plants are constantly supplied with a sustainable supply of top quality cattle. Local farmers have long term relationships with production to ensure continuity of supply all year round.
Our Irish Grass-Fed beef enjoys some of the best green pastures that Ireland has to offer, with the higher than average rainfall there is never a shortage of lush grass for them to enjoy. The welfare of all the cattle is very important, the less stress to the cattle, the better results it brings to the table. The process from farm to finished product is always very humane & efficient.
The select choice of breeds we use for our cuts; Charolais, Limousin, Angus, & Hereford, having good confirmation & delivering good yields. Most beef farmers & producers raise their cattle under “Bord Bia” guidelines. All our beef is fully traceable from farm to fork, with all cattle having digital passports, showing farmers details, breed, welfare etc.
Irish Beef is internationally recognised as a quality meat, with many famous restaurants having it on their menus.
Are Korean Beef Ribs nutritious?
There is a good level of Protein, Vitamins & Minerals found in high quality Grass Fed Beef, the Korean Ribs are a more fatty cut of meat. This makes them nutritious but, with a higher amount of fat per portion, rendering more fat down during cooking is better for lowering your fat intake.
The Korean Beef Ribs have natural intramuscular fat which give them their delicious flavour, most of this will render down during cooking. They are made from Grass Fed Beef making them leaner than Grain Fed Beef, this offers a much leaner finished cooked meat.
Remember that “Fat is flavour” in our Korean Beef Ribs
