There is nothing quite like the smell of Korean BBQ wafting through the air on a warm summer evening. One of the most beloved dishes in Korean cuisine is Galbi, or grilled beef short ribs. These succulent ribs are marinated in a sweet and savory sauce, then grilled to perfection over an open flame. The result is a mouthwatering dish that is sure to impress your family and friends.
Ingredients:
- 3 pounds beef short ribs
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1/2 onion, grated
- 1 pear, grated
- 1/4 cup rice wine
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- Salt, to taste
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, black pepper, green onions, onion, pear, rice wine, and sesame seeds. Mix well to make the marinade.
- Place the beef short ribs in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the ribs, making sure they are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Remove the ribs from the marinade and season with salt.
- Grill the ribs for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Be sure to baste them with the remaining marinade as they cook.
- Once the ribs are cooked to perfection, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with additional sesame seeds and chopped green onions, if desired.
