Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; oil grate. Remove short ribs from marinade, letting excess drip back into bowl (some marinade will cling to meat and that’s okay!). Thread meat onto skewers, spacing slightly apart to allow for airflow while grilling, and season lightly with salt. Grill kebabs, turning a few times, until browned and just cooked through, 6–⏱️ 10 minutes.
4
While the kebabs are grilling, lightly warm pita bread on other side of grill. Transfer to a platter.
Pita bread, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced Persian cucumbers, quartered trimmed radishes, and lemon wedges (for serving)

Place kebabs on top of pita and arrange halved cherry tomatoes, sliced Persian cucumbers, quartered trimmed radishes, lemon wedges, and reserved yogurt sauce around.
