Why You’ll Love It
Grass-Fed Beef Plate Short Ribs (Dino Ribs)
Meaty and full of character — our Beef Dino Ribs come from 100% grass-fed and grass-finished organic beef, raised with care and respect. Each rib is cut thick and built for slow cooking, delivering a deep, rich flavor that reflects the quality of naturally raised beef.
These impressive ribs are known for their tender, pull-apart texture and hearty bite. The generous marbling melts down during cooking, creating juicy layers of flavor that make each bite satisfying.
Perfect for smoking, braising, or roasting, Dino Ribs are a true centerpiece cut — rustic, bold, and unmistakably premium.
Dino Ribs vs. Back Plate Ribs: Dino Ribs are plate short ribs, cut from the lower plate section of the steer. They carry a thick layer of meat on top of the bone, which makes them the go-to cut for big, meaty smoked ribs. Our Back Plate Ribs come from the upper rib section instead, with less meat on top and most of it between the bones.

All of our Organic Grass-Fed, Grass-Finished Beef is proudly sourced from Thunder Ridge Beef in Southeast Iowa, where independent farmers and ranchers have been raising livestock in a sustainable and responsible manner for generations. Their deep-rooted commitment to ethical farming ensures the highest standards of animal welfare and environmental stewardship. Unlike imported beef—often aged and shipped from countries like New Zealand and Australia—our beef is locally sourced, never aged, and always fresh. Every cut is USDA-inspected and certified Halal, reflecting our dedication to quality, transparency, and trusted sourcing.
100% Grass-Fed & Grass-Finished
Organic, grass-fed and grass-finished beef sourced from Southeast Iowa. Raised on a 100% organic grass diet from start to finish, this beef offers a clean, natural flavor, premium quality, and dependable consistency in every cut.
USDA Certified Organic
This line is strictly USDA Certified Organic, meeting the highest federal standards for purity. The cattle are raised naturally on organic pastures without the use of synthetic hormones, antibiotics, or pesticides.
Fresh & Unaged Beef
Unlike commercial beef that undergoes long aging periods, our selection is processed and packaged with speed to lock in natural juices and flavor. The result is a fresher steak with a classic texture and a clean finish, devoid of the aggressive fermented notes associated with aged alternatives."
Rooted in Iowa
Working with Thunder Ridge in Sigourney, Iowa, is built on a shared commitment to transparency and local heritage. By sourcing from their dedicated facility and a select network of independent family ranchers within a 90-mile radius, they ensure a vertically integrated "farm-to-plate" process that supports the Southeast Iowa community. This localized approach allows for smaller-batch handling and the strict oversight required to deliver 100% grass-fed, unaged beef that is as fresh as the day it was harvested. Together, we are bridging the gap between the pasture and your table, providing a specialized selection that honors sustainable land management and honest, independent farming.
