Prepare the grill to medium heat.

Ask the butcher for boneless short rib steaks, trimmed of excess fat to prevent flare-ups.

Season the short ribs on both sides with coarse sea salt and coarse black pepper.

Place the short ribs on the grill, turning them consistently to create a manual spit roast effect.

Grill until medium rare to medium, ensuring the intermuscular fat melts and the outside crisps up.

Use your hand to gauge doneness by poking your thumb and fingers together to check for rare, medium rare, and medium.

Let the short ribs rest for about 5 minutes after grilling.

Slice the rested short ribs to serve.
