Kalbi Beef Ribs

Kalbi Beef Ribs

Recipe Details

Author Meat Church
Prep Time 10 minutes active plus overnight marinating
Cook Time A few minutes per side over high heat, to desired doneness

Summary

Thin-cut Korean-style short ribs are marinated overnight in a sweet-savory soy, pear, and onion kalbi marinade, then grilled hot and fast for caramelized edges and juicy, beefy bites. Finished with a light sprinkle of Blanco seasoning and fresh scallion over white rice.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place the ribs on a sheet tray, sprinkle evenly with the brown sugar, and let sit for at least 10 minutes while you prepare the marinade.

  2. 2

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, water, mirin, grated onion, grated Asian pear, minced garlic, sesame oil, and black pepper until combined.

  3. 3

    Transfer the ribs and any excess brown sugar into vacuum-seal bag(s). Evenly distribute the marinade between the bags and vacuum seal. (If you don’t have a vacuum sealer, place everything in a food-safe container.)

  4. 4

    Refrigerate and marinate overnight.

  5. 5

    Remove the marinated ribs from the refrigerator and from the bags or container.

  6. 6

    Season the ribs lightly with Meat Church Blanco to taste.

  7. 7

    Grill over a hot fire for a few minutes per side until charred on the outside or to your desired doneness (from medium-rare to near 200°F, as preferred).

  8. 8

    Serve the ribs over a bed of white rice and garnish with sliced fresh scallion.
