Korean Barbecue Short Ribs
Summer 2001
This is a dish for true meat lovers. Short ribs have mega flavour and more texture than other cuts. They need to be cooked rare or medium-rare otherwise they will be chewy. Short ribs come in different sizes. Usually 1 strip per person is enough. Serve with rice and a grilled pepper salad. Korean chilli sauce has more body and less heat than the Asian variety.
Serves 4
6 strips beef short ribs
Marinade
1 onion, finely chopped
2 tbsp (25 mL) chopped garlic
1 cup (250 mL) soy sauce
1/4 cup (50 mL) sugar

1/4 cup (50 mL) sesame oil
1/4 cup (50 mL) finely chopped fresh ginger
1 tbsp (15 mL) Korean or Asian chilli sauce
Vegetable oil to brush ribs
1. Score meaty side of ribs, opposite bone, 1/2-inch (1-cm) apart, 1/2-inch (1-cm) deep. Place ribs in large shallow bowl.
2. Combine all marinade ingredients. Pour half of marinade over ribs, reserving remainder. Refrigerate 24 hours, covered, turning ribs occasionally.
3. Brush oil on ribs. Grill ribs with the lid down, turning occasionally, for 14 to 18 minutes or until brown, crisp and rare to medium-rare.
4. Bring reserved marinade to boil in pot on medium-high heat. Simmer for 6 to 8 minutes or until slightly thickened. Cut ribs through the bones and serve with sauce.
