Any butchers on here?

I bought a rack of beef short ribs. Above the short ribs was a 1/2 inch fat band, then there was an extra 1/2 inch layer of meat that looked like flank steak. Anyone know what that top extra layer is actually called?

Depends on which end of the ribs you have, if they were cut out of the back of the rack near the rump, it would be flank steak, alternatively the skirt steak hangs off the end of the front ribs. Both are desirable cuts, but can be on the tough side if not prepared and sliced correctly.
