Grilled Short Ribs

I found this recipe on the Meatwave.com blog earlier this week and had to try it out.  This recipe was somewhat of a stretch for me in that I have cooked braised short ribs a few times but have never thought about grilling them.  I was able to find a good selection of short ribs at the grocery store and decided to give it a try.  It turned out very well, but be very selective when you choose your ribs; it will make all the difference.

Ingredients

6-8 short ribs approximately 6" long

Salt/Pepper

 

Directions

Cut short ribs into individual ribs (if needed).  Using a sharp knife, remove meat from the bone and trim off any excess hard fat or silver skin. 

 

Preheat grill to medium high heat (For this recipe, I used a traditional gas grill).  Season short rib steaks with salt and pepper. Place steaks on grill and cook, until well seared on all sides.  Once the steaks reach the desired internal temperature transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes.
Thinly slice steaks against the grain and serve.

Just as the original blog suggested, I made a chimichurri sauce to serve with these steaks and it was a nice addition.
