About Short Ribs Hotpot Slices 雪花牛小排火锅片

About the Cut

Short ribs come from the rib section of the cow, specifically the lower part of the rib cage near the brisket, chuck and plate. This cut is well known for its balance of meat and fat. Compared to leaner cuts, short ribs usually contain around 20% to 30% intramuscular fat, which makes them exceptionally flavorful and tender once cooked. The fat slowly melts into the meat and creates a buttery aroma and juicy texture, while the muscle fibers remain slightly coarse, giving each bite a satisfying chew without ever becoming tough.

Flavour and Texture

  • Marbling is fine and evenly distributed, and it melts into the meat when heated.
  • The aroma is buttery and nutty with a natural beef sweetness.
  • The texture is juicy, rich and never dry, with the muscle fibers cut across to enhance tenderness.
  • Each slice is pre cut to 1.5mm thickness and cooks within seconds, making it perfect for hotpot and quick stir fries.

Western Use

In Western cuisine, premium cuts of meat are often enjoyed grilled, roasted, or slow cooked to highlight their natural flavour and tenderness. For a quicker option, thin slicing allows the same rich taste to be enjoyed within minutes, perfect for everyday meals.

East Asian Preparation

East Asian cooking celebrates thinly sliced meat for its tenderness and versatility.

Whether for Japanese shabu shabu, Korean style beef or pork hotpot, or Chinese style broth, thin slices cook instantly and absorb the flavours of the soup base.

They pair beautifully with dipping sauces like sesame, soy, or chili oil, and can also be used in quick stir fries, noodle soups, or rice bowls.

Some classic examples include tomato beef soup, golden broth beef, Japanese gyudon, Korean bulgogi rice, and spicy noodle dishes topped with tender meat slices.

Recipe Inspirations

Here are some simple ways to enjoy Celeplate hotpot slices at home:

Hotpot classic: Dip slices into boiling broth for just a few seconds until they turn tender and juicy.

Stir fry: Sauté with vegetables like broccoli, garlic sprouts, or onions for a quick balanced meal.

Soup or noodles: Add slices at the end of cooking to enrich your broth and keep the texture soft.

Rice bowls: Simmer with soy sauce, mirin, and onions for a comforting Japanese style donburi.
