We live here in Cleveland and i just had this discussion with the meat buyer. He said there is not enough flanken in the states from their old supplier to service all the stores. There is a law that says imported meat cannot have bones so being that flanken is boned they cannot get it from the south american plants that supply their deboned meat like ribeye steaks, london broil, brisket and ground beef. This law frustrates him to no end as flanken was his best seller. Hope this answers the quandary.
