📝 Instructions

10 steps
1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

2

In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, arrange the beef short ribs in a single layer.

3

In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, and water to make the sauce.

4

Pour the sauce over the beef short ribs, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the pot tightly with a lid or aluminum foil.

5

Place the pot in the preheated oven and braise the ribs for 2.5 hours, turning them once halfway through cooking.

6

After 2.5 hours, remove the pot from the oven and carefully transfer the ribs to a plate. Skim any excess fat from the remaining sauce in the pot.

7

Place the pot over medium heat on the stovetop. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to make a slurry. Stir the slurry into the sauce and simmer for 5-7 minutes until thickened.

8

Return the beef ribs to the pot, tossing them to coat in the sticky glaze. Simmer for an additional 10 minutes to develop the flavors.

9

Transfer the sticky beef bones to a serving platter, spooning extra sauce over them.

10

Garnish with sliced scallions and sesame seeds before serving. Enjoy!
