Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Flanken-cut beef short ribs
- 0.5 cup Soy sauce
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1.5 tablespoons Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 0.5 piece Pear or apple, grated
- 2 stalks Green onions, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Water
Instructions
Rinse the flanken-cut beef short ribs in cold water to remove any bone fragments. Pat them dry with a paper towel and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, sesame oil, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, grated pear or apple, chopped green onions, sesame seeds, black pepper, and water. Stir well to create a marinade.
Place the short ribs in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the ribs, making sure they are evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap.
Marinate the ribs in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are glowing and have an even layer of heat.
Remove the ribs from the marinade and let any excess liquid drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
Grill the ribs for 3-4 minutes on each side until nicely caramelized and cooked to your desired level of doneness.
Transfer the grilled ribs to a serving platter and garnish with additional sesame seeds and chopped green onions, if desired.
Serve immediately with steamed rice, kimchi, and other side dishes of your choice.
