Sweet-and-Spicy Grilled Beef Short Ribs
Winter grilling can be a challenge, but it’s also an opportunity to embrace quick-cooking, flavor-packed recipes that don’t leave you shivering. Sweet-and-Spicy Grilled Beef Short Ribs are a prime example. These flanken-style ribs are sliced just 1/3 of an inch thick, ensuring they cook fast while maximizing their surface area for a rich, caramelized crust. The sweet heat of the spice rub combines brown sugar, chili powder, and a medley of seasonings that penetrate the meat as it rests, creating an irresistible balance of flavors.
Grilling these short ribs on an American Made Grill ensures you get the perfect sear. Each grill delivers the high, even heat needed to char the ribs beautifully in just six minutes, locking in juices and creating a crispy exterior. With a preparation that’s as efficient as it is delicious, you’ll spend less time braving the cold and more time savoring tender, flavorful short ribs. Pair them with slaw and a squeeze of fresh lemon for a dish that transforms winter grilling into a quick and satisfying experience.
