How to tell if short ribs are bad?

How can you determine if short ribs have gone bad?
I recently purchased short ribs from a local butcher. Upon unwrapping them at home, I noticed dark brownish-gray spots and a doughy, yeast-like odor. Are these ribs spoiled?

  1. It sounds like your short ribs may not be safe to eat. The dark brownish or grey spots can indicate spoilage, especially if they’re accompanied by a doughy or off-putting smell. Fresh meat typically has a vibrant red color and should smell clean and meaty, not sour or yeasty. When in doubt, it’s better to err on the side of caution. If you’re concerned about the quality or safety of the meat, it’s best to discard it and not take any risks. Always trust your instincts when it comes to food safety!
