Cold cut of meat and bed (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

crib

'bed' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'cold cut of meat' is the wordplay.
'cold' becomes 'c' (eg on taps).
'cut of meat' becomes 'rib' (rib is a kind of cut of meat).
'c'+'rib'='CRIB'

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for crib that I've seen before include "Copy without acknowledgement" , "A model of the manger" , "Steal the work" , "Card game for two" , "Child's bed - copy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
