Master the art of authentic Korean galbi with these sweet, savory, and smoky Grilled Short Ribs. Thinly sliced flanken-style ribs absorb a complex marinade featuring grated Asian pear, soy sauce, and sesame oil, which naturally tenderizes the meat while caramelizing over intense heat. Grilling them quickly over screaming hot coals chars the thin bones and edges to absolute perfection.

Follow step-by-step with voice guidance.
1. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, grated Asian pear, minced garlic, minced ginger, toasted sesame oil, rice vinegar, and black pepper until the sugar is completely dissolved.
2. Place the Korean-style flanken cut short ribs in a shallow baking dish in a single layer.
3. Pour the prepared marinade thoroughly over the ribs, making sure every piece is fully coated on both sides.
4. Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight for deep flavor absorption.
5. Preheat your outdoor grill or a heavy cast-iron grill pan over high heat until it is extremely hot, then lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
6. Remove the short ribs from the refrigerator and shake off any excess liquid so they sear immediately instead of steaming in the pan.
7. Place the ribs onto the hot grill and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on the first side until deep caramelization and char marks appear.
8. Flip the ribs carefully and grill for another 2 minutes on the second side until cooked through and slightly charred at the edges.
9. Transfer the grilled short ribs to a clean platter and allow them to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
10. Garnish generously with toasted sesame seeds and freshly chopped green onions.
Grate Asian Pear Properly: Asian pear contains natural enzymes that tenderize the beef short ribs effectively without making the texture mushy. Control the Heat: Because the marinade contains brown sugar, watch closely on high heat to prevent sudden flare-ups or burning. Shake Off Marinade: Removing excess liquid before placing meat on the grill ensures a crisp sear rather than a boiled texture.
You need to ask your butcher for flanken-style beef short ribs. These are sliced thin across the bone into long strips that contain three small oval-shaped bone sections, which allow the marinade to penetrate deeply.
