Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Flanken-cut short ribs
- 0.5 cups Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoons Honey
- 4 Garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger (grated)
- 2 Green onions (finely chopped)
- 0.5 Asian pear (grated)
- 1 tablespoon Rice wine vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Rinse the flanken-cut short ribs under cold water to remove any bone fragments, then pat them dry with paper towels.
In a large mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, green onions, grated Asian pear, rice wine vinegar, and black pepper. Stir until the sugar is dissolved and the marinade is well mixed.
Place the short ribs in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the ribs, ensuring they are fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, for maximum flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the marinated ribs from the fridge and allow them to come to room temperature for about 15-20 minutes before grilling.
Grill the ribs for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they develop a nice caramelized char and are cooked to your desired doneness.
Remove the ribs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Garnish with sesame seeds, if desired, and serve immediately with steamed rice and side dishes like kimchi or pickled vegetables.
