Get a Pak and keep grens close to your vehicles for Panzerfausts and you should be fine :-)
Buildorder:
MG
Gren
Gren
Gren
Mortar (not absolutely necessary but nice sometimes)
T2
SdKfz 251
-> Flame Upgrade
PaK40
T3
Ostwind
Stug (better 2)
In my last game with this strategy, my Flame HT went from Vet 0 to Vet 2 in less than 4 seconds.

If I notice that my enemy is playing a heavy inf strategy, I usually get a fast Flame HT and an Ostwind afterwards.

Generally speaking mortars (in my experience) don't work well versus infantry spam unless your opponent is actively blobbing and bunching up his squads - then direct mortar hits do a lot of damage to the blob. Usually you are better off getting a second HMG for crowd control and then getting a Flame HT or Ostwind as High5 suggested. You just have to keep in mind how far behind on fuel you are before getting an Ostwind and prepare accordingly with double PAK if you think a medium tank is going to hit you soon. Generally speaking you want to try and maintain as least a close number of infantry squads to your opponent or else you'll just get outmuscled off the map.
Very useful Every word. Thanks., i just need to use more Barbed wire / mines i think to get all my front solid

Grens to spot for the MG's. Ostheer survives off of utilizing MG's. I've noticed that two MG's seems to be the sweet spot for Ostheer if you are worried about using odd build orders. You have to be careful of getting a Flamer HT. Although it's a great unit, if he gets an AA halftrack or Stuart you're in for trouble and you better get a counter ready.

Build MGs or grenblob, gg ez.
And mix in 1 mortar into the pot. 1 mortar can be sick vs infantry-spam!
