Beef Flanken Ribs are a cut of short ribs that come from across the bones of the rib section, rather than between them. This results in thin strips of meat with 3–4 small cross-sections of bone in each piece. They’re sometimes referred to as Korean-style short ribs (especially when cut very thin) and are prized for their rich marbling and flavor. Best suited for fast cooking methods like grilling or pan-frying.
