Pastrami Choice Beef Chuck Short Ribs Warming Instructions

Please Note:

• The preferred warming method uses an oven.
• Ovens and microwaves cook differently so times are approximate.

Conventional and Convection Oven

• Make sure the ribs are thawed before warming.
• Pre-Heat oven to 425°F.
• Remove ribs from packaging and wrap ribs in foil. The ribs need to be wrapped completely so no moisture escapes. Double up on foil if needed.
• Place ribs on a baking sheet and bake for 90 minutes or until 165f. These are thick ribs so it takes a while but it is well worth it.
• For a crisper bark, unwrap the foil exposing the top for the last 10 minutes of warming.

* The USDA’s safe temperature for beef is 145f. Even though this is a pre-cooked product we recommend 165f. If you are fine with 145f, check the temperature of the center of the ribs at 60 – 70 minutes. The thicker ribs will take longer.

Microwave

• Make sure the ribs are thawed before warming Remove ribs from package.
• Remove ribs from packaging and place ribs one-side down in a microwaved safe dish and cover. Vent slightly.
• If the weight of the ribs is 1.75 pounds or less microwave for 9 minutes.
• If the weight of the ribs is 1.75 pounds to 2.25 pounds microwave for 11 minutes.
• If the weight of the ribs is 2.25 pounds to 2.75 pounds+ microwave for 13 minutes.
• Let stand for 2 minutes. Remove carefully from microwave. When unwrapping please watch for steam!
