This recipe features tender flanken-cut beef short ribs marinated in a smoky-sweet gochujang glaze, perfect for quick grilling and packed with bold Korean BBQ flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds flanken-cut beef short ribs
  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons gochujang (Korean chili paste)
  • 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 2 stalks green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Rinse 2 pounds of flanken-cut beef short ribs and pat dry. Trim excess fat if desired.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce, 2 tablespoons gochujang, 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger, and 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. Whisk until smooth.
  3. Place the ribs in the bowl or a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Ensure each piece is well-coated. Marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hours, ideally overnight.
  4. Reserve about 1/4 cup of the marinade. Pour it into a small saucepan and warm over low heat, stirring frequently until it thickens slightly (about 5 minutes).
  5. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (375-400°F).
  6. Place ribs on the grill or pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, brushing with reserved glaze after flipping. Look for caramelized color and slight char marks.
  7. Remove ribs from heat and let rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds before serving.

Notes

Marinate ribs overnight for best flavor. Brush glaze only after flipping to avoid burning. Control grill heat to prevent flare-ups. Rest ribs after cooking to lock in juices. Can bake ribs at 400°F for 15-20 minutes and broil 2-3 minutes as an alternative cooking method.
