Grilled Beef Galbi (Korean Short Ribs)
Description
Grilled Beef Galbi (Korean Short Ribs) is prepared using thinly sliced beef short ribs soaked in a marinade containing soy sauce, mirin, brown sugar, apple juice, garlic, and ginger. This combination delivers a mix of umami and sweetness characteristic of the dish. The ribs are marinated for at least four hours, allowing the flavors to penetrate and the meat to tenderize. Grilling the ribs for about four minutes on each side creates a nicely seared crust while ensuring the interior reaches an appropriate doneness.
The marinade is reserved and boiled down to a syrupy consistency, which adds a concentrated flavor when served alongside the ribs for dipping. Garnishing with fresh green onions contributes a mild sharpness and a bit of crunch to complement the tender meat.
This dish pairs well with steamed rice or grilled vegetables, making a satisfying meal. The marinating and grilling steps require some advance planning but yield richly flavored short ribs with a tender texture and balanced tastes.
Ingredients
- 4 lb beef short ribs about 1/4 inch thickness
- 3/4 cup soy sauce low-sodium
- 1/4 cup mirin
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup apple juice
- 2 garlic minced, cloves
- 2 tbsp ginger minced, fresh
- 1/3 cup green onions garnish
Instructions
- In a food safe bag, combine the soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, apple juice, garlic cloves, and ginger together.
- Add the ribs, seal the bag, and massage the marinade in through the outside of the bag. Allow the ribs to marinate for at least 4 hours.
- Remove the Beef Short Ribs from the marinade and set the bag of marinade aside. Grill the ribs on each side for about 4 minutes or until each side is golden and the internal temperature is at 145°F.
- In a small saucepan, boil the marinade until it reduces by half (this should take about 7 minutes). Garnish the Beef Short Ribs with green onions and serve them with the marinade on the side for dipping.
