• Cover and let marinate for at least 4 hours turning at least once.
• Heat gas or charcoal grill to medium hot.
• Remove the ribs from the marinade and place on the hot grill.

GALBI (KOREAN-STYLE SHORT RIBS)

Steps:

• Rinse short ribs in cold water, pat dry and place in a wide shallow bowl. In another bowl, mix together soy sauce, brown sugar, rice wine, sesame oil, black pepper and cayenne.
• Put onion, garlic, pear and ginger in the work bowl of a food processor. Grind ingredients to a smooth purée, then add to soy sauce mixture. Add sesame seeds. Thin with ¼ cup water. Pour marinade over short ribs and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight. Bring to room temperature, drain and discard marinade.
• Cook short ribs on a hot grill or under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until nicely browned but juicy. Pile grilled meat on a platter and serve immediately with lettuce leaves on the side. Accompany with sliced hot peppers, ssamjang and steamed rice, if desired.

KALBI (KOREAN BARBEQUED BEEF SHORT RIBS)

Steps:

• Preparation: Sprinkle brown sugar over beef and mix well to evenly coat. Let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes while preparing marinade. In a bowl, whisk together remaining ingredients. Transfer beef into a large sealable freezer bag (you may need 2). Add marinade, press out excess air from bags, and seal. Turn bag over several times to ensure beef is evenly coated. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours but preferably overnight.
• Heat gas or charcoal grill to medium-hot. Drain excess marinade off beef. Grill short ribs, turning once, to desired doneness, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Garnish with thinly sliced green onions, if desired. Serve whole pieces as a main course or cut into smaller pieces, using kitchen shears, for a starter or party nibble.

Add soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, fresh and ground ginger, brown sugar, water, rice wine, pear and kiwi; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook 60 minutes.

KOREAN BBQ SHORT RIBS (YANGNYEOM GALBI)

Steps:

• Marinade: Peel pear, cut into pieces, and place into food processor (discard the core). Smash garlic cloves; trim root end, remove peel, and add to the food processor. Trim any dry patches off ginger knob; then use a spoon to scrape off the skin. Roughly slice (to about the same size as the garlic) and place in the food processor. Pulse to finely chop, about 20 seconds. Add sugar, mirin, soy sauce, and sake, and pulse several times to finish the marinade. Set aside.
• Short ribs: Cut short rib slices into 2-inch pieces, making sure a bone is in each piece. Pour enough marinade into a baking dish to cover the bottom. Spread the sliced short ribs on the marinade; then pour remaining marinade on top to cover. Cover the surface of the ribs with plastic wrap and refrigerate, 12-24 hours.
• Remove marinade from short ribs by draining them in a colander; discard marinade. Heat skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil in a thin, even layer. When the skillet is smoking, add short ribs, one piece at a time, in an even layer. (Cook in batches to avoid overcrowding.) Cook undisturbed until brown and caramelized on one side, 2 minutes. Flip over and cook another 1-2 minutes to brown and caramelize. (Note: To cook galbi on a grill, oil the grill grate, preheat to medium-high, and cook for 2 minutes per side.)
• Remove beef to a serving platter. Wipe the pan clean with a paper towel and repeat with remaining oil and beef. Garnish beef with scallions. Serve with white rice or with lettuce leaves to wrap.
