Knowing how many beef short ribs to buy per person can be confusing. Buying by weight isn’t practical. Ask your butcher and mention that you’ll be using a slow cooker, so the ribs will have to be short otherwise they won’t fit in the pot. 2 to 4 inches (5 to 10 cm) long is about right. A basic rule is that three 6 inch (15 cm) long ribs are enough per person.
