Meat cut brief tease (5,3)
I believe the answer is:
short rib
'meat cut' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'brief tease' is the wordplay.
'brief' becomes 'short' (synonyms).
'tease' becomes 'rib' (I've seen this in other clues).
'short'+'rib'='SHORT-RIB'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
