Video Description
These flanken beef ribs cook hot and fast right over the fire, and the whole trick is what I call “Burn and Turn.” You stay with them the entire cook, flipping every couple minutes, basting with butter, and letting them get flame-kissed over the coals.
A Greek-style marinade helps tenderize the meat and get flavor all the way through. Then on the grill, that butter baste builds rich flavor and a really good char on the outside... but the fast cook keeps them juicy.
When they’re done, you’ve got that rich, beefy flavor like a ribeye with a real good, caramelized char... and the best part is you get to gnaw it right off those little flaken rib bones.

Greek-Style Flanken Beef Ribs (Burn & Turn)
Ingredients
- 3–4 lbs flanken-cut beef short ribs (thin-cut, ~¼" thick)
- Killer Hogs AP Seasoning
- Malcom's Gyro Hero Greek Seasoning
Marinade Recipe
- 1/2 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
- Juice of 2 lemons
- 2 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp garlic, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp Malcom's Gyro Hero Greek Seasoning
- 3/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 1/2 cup olive oil
Butter Baste Recipe
- 2 sticks butter
- 1–2 tbsp Malcom's Gyro Hero Greek Seasoning
- Juice of ½ lemon
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
1. Season the ribs
- Season flanken ribs evenly on all sides with light coat of AP Seasoning and then medium coat of Gyro Hero Greek seasoning.
2. Marinade and soak
- Whisk together parsley, lemon juice, honey, garlic, Greek seasoning, red wine vinegar, and olive oil until combined.
- Add ribs and toss to coat thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3–4 hours, preferably overnight.
3. Prepare the grill and butter baste
- Set up a charcoal grill with a two-zone fire (hot direct side and cooler indirect side).
- Melt butter and stir in Greek seasoning, lemon juice, and parsley. Keep warm for basting.
4. Cook over direct heat (burn & turn)
- Remove ribs from marinade and place directly over hot coals in batches.
- Cook about 2 minutes per side, flipping often.
- Baste with butter between flips and allow flare-ups to hit the meat.
- Continue turning until the ribs develop deep caramelization with light char on the edges.
5. Move to indirect heat
- As each batch finishes, move ribs to the cool side of the grill, stacking loosely while remaining ribs cook.
6. Finish and serve
- Once all ribs are on the indirect side, close the lid and cook for about 5 minutes.
- Remove from grill and serve immediately with a light squeeze of lemon and optional fresh parsley.
