There's no date on the package that I can discern. That's weird.
Beef keeps for a long time, I would call RD and see what those numbers mean -
227 U
257 PD.
I hate to freeze beef, if you get no definite answer from RD, be safe.
Those are back ribs, not the brontos or the big suckas you see.

somebody shut me the fark up.
They are beef back, not short ribs. Far less meat, but still great flavor.

Of the two cut ones, pork on left, beef back on the right :
Short plate is big meat (also big price, usually) :
The ones you have taste great & if you're concerned about date, set 'em in an ice chest & throw a couple bags on top....that buys at least two days............

I have used Plowboys Bovine Bold on them and it was great. Also Butchers Texas style steak and brisket rub was very good. Bought one rack that was seasoned in the cryovac misc I don't remember. They were also fantastic. Seems beef ribs are just good to me. Bovine Bold is probably the most readily available at ACE hardware and other places. Butchers would be mail order probably. Kosher salt and pepper would be good too! I haven't found a bad way to do them. Cook till probe tender.

On edit, read this thread. The PD 257 is the label date...

They'll be fine in the fridge til Sunday. Cook low and slow for a loooong time. Even tho they're beef, ribs will be too tough to chew if not cooked until tender.
I love beef back ribs, probably more than short ribs. Mostly because of the price. Just think of the way you do with crab legs, not alot of meat but worth the effort.
