Beef with extra decoration added (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

baron

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'beef' is the definition.
(baron is a joint of beef)

'extra decoration added' is the wordplay.
'extra' becomes 'b' (abbreviation for 'bye' - cricket).
'decoration' becomes 'aron' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'added' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'b'+'aron'='BARON'

'with' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for baron that I've seen before include "Aristocratic title" , "A lord; sounds like childless" , "British peer of the lowest rank" , "British peer; business mogul" , "captain of industry" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
