I love ribs. My hubby loves ribs. Who doesn't love ribs?? I just don't love all the planning they take. Sure, we have a smoker we love to bust out, but spending hours to slow smoke meat isn't something we can do often. So when I heard about an awesome new cut- Flanken Ribs- that are sliced like a flank steak across the ribs to make a thin, quick cooking rib-steak, I was all in. I knew it was time to come up with a Korean Grilled Flanken Ribs recipe.
These are SO easy to make and so delicious, you might never look back at regular old ribs again!
BBQ Korean Flanken Ribs
Delicious Korean BBQ Flanken Ribs are a great way to get a delicious rib dinner- in a fraction of the time! Total active time is under 15 minutes to KILLER ribs you will want to eat as a steak, in tacos or in a salad!
Recipe is per pound of ribs which will feed two adults. Simply multiply for additional pounds!
Ingredients
- 1 lb flanken cut beef ribs
- For the marinade:
- ¼ cup diced green onion
- 6 cloves garlic, diced
- ¼ cup dark brown sugar, use molasses if you are trying to stick to paleo
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar
- ¼ cup soy sauce, tamari if you are gluten free
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp black pepper
Instructions
- Add marinate ingredients to a bag, mix very well.
- Add ribs.
- Marinate 6 hours or overnight.
- On a hot grill (on high), cook ribs 4 minutes per side until browned.
- Serve as rib-steaks with a knife and fork, shred for tacos, or cut up into pieces for a salad.
These ribs are so good- you can eat them as little steaks with a knife and fork (or your hands- they are RIBS after all!!), cut up into tacos with fresh shredded cabbage or kimchi, or in a salad.
What is your favorite way to make ribs? I used to be a devotee of the slow and low method... but these bad boys are seriously good- and just as easy- and will be a part of our rotation a LOT more in the future!

St. Louis ribs on the smoker are my favorite but I want to try beef short ribs or flanken ribs but they are not cheap
