❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Beef Flanken Short Ribs
1. What are flanken short ribs?
Flanken short ribs are cut across the bone, so each piece has several small cross-sections of bone. They are different from English style ribs which are cut between the bones. Flanken ribs are thinner and cook faster.
2. Can I make this recipe in a slow cooker?
Yes you can. Sear the ribs as directed, then transfer them and the braising liquid to a slow cooker. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours until tender.
3. How do I know when the short ribs are done?
The short ribs are done when the meat is fork tender and easily pulls away from the bone. This usually takes about 2 to 2.5 hours in the oven.
4. Can I use a different type of soy sauce?
You can use low sodium soy sauce to reduce the salt content. Tamari or coconut aminos also work well as substitutes.
5. What should I serve with these short ribs?
These ribs go great with steamed rice, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread to soak up the sauce. A side of roasted vegetables or a simple salad also works well.
