Preparation
-
1.In a bowl, combine soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, garlic, brown sugar or honey, grated ginger, rice vinegar, and black pepper. Mix well until the sugar is dissolved.
-
2.Place the beef short ribs in a large resealable bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the ribs, ensuring they are fully coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for maximum flavor.
-
3.Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the ribs from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off.
-
4.Grill the ribs for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Baste the ribs with the remaining marinade during grilling.
-
5.Once cooked, transfer the ribs to a serving platter and sprinkle with sliced green onions and sesame seeds. Let them rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Treat your ingredients with care...
- Soy Sauce — Opt for low-sodium soy sauce if you prefer to reduce the overall sodium content of the dish.
- Mirin — If you don't have mirin, you can substitute it with a combination of rice vinegar and a pinch of sugar.
- Sesame Oil — Use toasted sesame oil for a more pronounced nutty flavor.
- Rice Vinegar — If rice vinegar is not available, apple cider vinegar can be used as a substitute.
- Beef Short Ribs — Look for well-marbled ribs with a good balance of meat and fat for the best flavor and tenderness.
Tips & Tricks
- For an extra burst of flavor, add a splash of pineapple juice or grated pear to the marinade.
- If grilling outdoors is not an option, you can also cook the ribs on a stovetop grill pan or broil them in the oven.
- To achieve a beautiful caramelized crust, brush the ribs with a thin layer of honey or brown sugar before grilling.
- Let the ribs rest for a few minutes after grilling to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful bite.
- Serve the Grilled Korean Beef Short Ribs with a side of steamed rice and a variety of banchan (Korean side dishes) for a complete and authentic Korean dining experience.
