KOREAN BBQ SHORT RIBS (GAL-BI)



Korean BBQ Short Ribs (Gal-Bi) image

This is a easy way to make Korean BBQ. You can also substitute chicken breast or sliced rib-eye for the short ribs. If you use chicken or rib-eye, you must add thinly sliced green onion tops. This can also be broiled in the oven for the same amount of time.

EASY SWEET & SAVORY KOREAN BBQ GRILLED BEEF SHORT RIBS (KAL



Easy Sweet & Savory Korean BBQ Grilled Beef Short Ribs (Kal image

This is probably the best homemade Korean grilled beef dish EVER, no exaggeration. I guess you can think of it as a Korean-style beef teriyaki. It is my daughter's favorite way to eat meat and I've never met an American who didn't like it. I was surprised not to find any other kalbi recipe on the zaar, though there are many for braised short ribs and the other korean bbq beef, bulgogi. Kalbi is simple and delicious. Growing up, I typically only had kalbi on special occasions, family holiday dinners, church picnics, and the like. In a restaurant, it can get very pricey but it's a real treat of an experience to have kalbi cooked right at the table and have all sorts of side dishes to eat with it. This recipe is also very flexible: easily doubled; any sweeteners can work in place of sugar (pear juice, honey, brown sugar); easily fried in a skillet or broiled in the oven or grilled... You can serve with just rice, or go all out restaurant-style and serve with red lettuce leaves for wrapping, spicy bean paste, slices of garlic cloves, sliced up scallions and kimchi. It's up to you! The only important thing to remember is the proportion of sugar to soy sauce to water that will result in the best combination of sweet and savory. Prep time does not include marinating time.

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 lbs beef short ribs (Flanken style or Korean style)
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 yellow onion, halved and sliced
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
2 scallions, chopped
1 head red leaf lettuce, washed (optional)
3 scallions, sliced lengthwise (optional)
1 tablespoon red pepper flakes (optional)
1 tablespoon sesame oil (optional)
1/4 cup hot bean paste (optional) or 1/4 cup chili paste (optional)

Steps:

  • Rinse short ribs under the faucet to get rid of loose bone bits. Soak the short ribs in water for 10 minutes to drain out some of the blood. They can be soaked in a roasting pan, ziploc bag, or large bowl--- whatever container you would like to use for marinating.
  • In your marinating container, combine sugar, water, soy sauce, sesame oil, onion, garlic, sesame seeds and scallions. Dissolve the sugar into the mixture as much as possible, but it will likely not become totally dissolved.
  • Lay rib pieces in the marinade, dispersing onion slices between and on top of the meat and submerging the meat as much as possible.
  • Let the beef marinate in the refrigerator at least 30 minutes, and ideally overnight.
  • Line the grill with foil and poke holes in the foil. On medium high heat, grill the short ribs 5-7 minutes on each side until the meat is cooked medium-well and the bones do not bleed. In my opinion, this particular dish is best with a bit of burnt edges and near-well-doneness.
  • Serve with rice.
  • Alternatively, add extra flair! Wash and break off whole leaves of red lettuce and place on a serving plate (note: red lettuce is not actually red and is widely available in grocery stores). In a small bowl, toss long thin slices of scallion with sesame oil and red pepper flakes. Serve short ribs cut into thirds or about 1 inch squares (kitchen shears work best). In a small dish, place spicy bean paste or hot sauce. To assemble, wrap each piece of meat in a red lettuce leaf with scallion mixture and a dot of the spicy sauce.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality short ribs: Look for short ribs that are well-marbled with fat, as this will help keep them moist and flavorful during cooking.
  • Marinate the short ribs for at least 30 minutes: This will help tenderize the meat and allow the flavors to penetrate.
  • Sear the short ribs over high heat: This will create a nice crust on the outside of the meat and help lock in the juices.
  • Braise the short ribs in a flavorful liquid: This could be anything from a simple beef broth to a more complex sauce. The braising liquid will help to tenderize the meat and add flavor.
  • Cook the short ribs until they are fall-off-the-bone tender: This will typically take at least 2 hours, but it may take longer depending on the toughness of the meat.
  • Serve the short ribs with your favorite sides: Some popular options include rice, noodles, and vegetables.

Conclusion:

Korean short ribs are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make Korean short ribs at home. So next time you are looking for a new and exciting recipe, give Korean short ribs a try.
