Ingredients:
- ¾ cup soy sauce
- ¾ cup water
- 3 tablespoons white vinegar (the vinegar with moves!)
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil (for that savory dance floor)
- ½ large onion, minced (minced, not minced words!)
- ¼ cup minced garlic (because vampires aren't invited)
- ¼ cup dark brown sugar (for a touch of sweetness)
- 2 tablespoons white sugar (the sweet sidekick)
- 1 tablespoon black pepper (spicing things up!)
- 3 pounds Korean-style short ribs (beef chuck flanken, cut 1/3- to 1/2-inch-thick across bones)
Directions:
Step 1 - The Marinade Mashup:
- Pour soy sauce, water, vinegar, and sesame oil into a large, non-metallic bowl.
- Whisk in onion, garlic, brown sugar, white sugar, and pepper – whisk until the sugars drop the mic and dissolve.
- Submerge those short ribs in the marinade, cover the bowl, and let it groove in the fridge for 7 to 12 hours; the longer, the better. Let the flavors party all night long!
Step 2 - Grillin' Vibes:
- Preheat an outdoor grill for a medium-high heat jam session.
Step 3 - Unleash the Ribs:
- Remove the ribs from the marinade and shake off that excess; toss the marinade like yesterday's news.
Step 4 - Grill Mastery:
- Cook those ribs on the preheated grill until the meat is no longer playing it cool, about 5 to 7 minutes per side. Get ready for the applause!
