Description

This Korean-style short ribs recipe uses a blend of Asian-inspired flavors to marinate ribs, then grills them for irresistible sweet and savory goodness.

Ingredients

1 large Asian pear, peeled, cored and sliced
1/3 cup sherry wine
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1/8 cup brown sugar
5 slices fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, peeled
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon hot chile paste (such as sambal oelek)
1 teaspoon sesame oil
4 pounds beef short ribs, trimmed
1 chopped green onion for garnish

Directions

1 Combine pear slices, sherry wine, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, hoisin sauce, chili paste, and sesame oil in a blender; blend until smooth, about 4 minutes.
2 Arrange ribs in a 9x13-inch baking dish; coat with marinade. Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap; refrigerate 8 hours to overnight.
3 Transfer short ribs to a plate; pat dry with paper towels.
4 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
5 Cook ribs on the preheated grill until firm, hot, and slightly pink in center, about 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
