Notes

Flanken cut ribs aren't readily available everywhere but they are common enough to find in many grocery store formats. Local butcher shops would be more than happy to cut them for you.
If you want your flanken short ribs to be extra tender, you can marinate them in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, and lime juice for at least an hour before any direct grilling.
I prefer a low sodium based soy sauce. You don't want salt to be the main ingredient you taste. These are Asian style ribs so you want those flavors of garlic, ginger, and coconut to shine through.
Allow ribs to reach room temperature before cooking. This ensures more even cooking for each strip of beef.
When cooking the flanken short ribs, be sure not to overcook them - they should be slightly pink in the center when done.
Once the flanken short ribs are cooked, you can garnish with green onions and serve with steamed rice.
Serve these with your favorite white rice recipe, a cucumber salad, or Korean spinach
