They were on sale. 30% off regular price.
I went for it, not knowing how to cook them or what they were even called.
What they are is Korean cross-cut short ribs aka: Flanken.
I love short ribs and I figured this can't be too different, since it is the same meat. Looking forward to eating them in a few minutes. I am sure they will not disappoint.

Rarely can I find these for a reasonable price. I don't care which way they're cut, I love 'em. I can smoke them, grill them, roast them, even put them in soup.
ReplyDeleteThe price is definitely not cheap, but I do like them, too. BTW the first time I had them was at your house, back in 2013. Worth the money, once in a while. This recipe was good, but it overcooks the meat. Not sure I would ever buy the cut again.
