Braised short ribs....what is it called in German?

Hello, I have a craving for beef braised short ribs. My butcher speaks very little English. What is the cut of meat called in German for this dish? The literal translation in Google is "Kurzen Rippen"

Any help is appreciated!

Try "Querrippe" or "Spannrippe". Beef cuts in different countries are a bit different but imho, that part confers best to short ribs.

or "Rinderrippenstück", perhaps?

Sounds good! What is it called in French?

bouts de côtes de boeuf braisées, IIRC

Hmmm could it be 'Schweinhund'

I believe it is called "Rindsvoressen" (there isalso Kalbsvoressen but the pieces are smaller and from theyounger animal) By the way my wife justprepared an excellent Short Rib tonight!
