Soy and Sesame Short Ribs Recipe

Soy and Sesame Short Ribs Recipe

  • 1/2 apple (skin on), cored, chopped
  • 6 garlic cloves, peeled, crushed
  • 1/2 cup orange marmalade
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 tablespoon dry sake or dry white wine
  • 2 teaspoon gochugaru (Korean red pepper powder)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 2 pounds 1/4″-thick cross-cut bone-in beef short ribs (flanken style)
  • Vegetable oil (for grilling)
  1. Pulse apple, garlic, marmalade, brown sugar, sesame oil, sesame seeds, sake, gochugaru, and pepper in a food processor or blender until garlic and apple are finely chopped.
  2. Transfer to a large dish and mix in soy sauce. Add ribs and turn to coat. Let sit, massaging meat and turning occasionally, at least 10 minutes.
  3. Prepare grill for medium-high heat; oil grate with vegetable oil. Remove ribs from marinade and grill, turning once, until lightly charred and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side for medium-rare.
