For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of grated fresh ginger to the marinade. Garnish with thinly sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds before serving. Galbi is traditionally served with rice, kimchi, and an array of Korean side dishes (banchan). Adjust the amount of brown sugar and honey to your liking. Some prefer a sweeter marinade, while others prefer a more savory profile.

Follow The Directions
01
StepBegin by purging the ribs: Place the beef short ribs in a large pot and cover generously with cold water. Allow them to soak in the refrigerator for 1 hour to draw out any impurities. Drain thoroughly. (1 hour)
02
StepCraft the marinade: In a blender, combine the Asian pear, onion, and garlic. Process until completely smooth. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl, then incorporate the soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, sesame oil, and a generous grind of black pepper. (5 minutes)
03
StepMarinate the ribs: Add the ribs to the soy mixture, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. Cover the bowl tightly and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully penetrate the meat. (8-12 hours)
04
StepPrepare the grill: Preheat an outdoor grill to high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking. (10 minutes)
05
StepGrill the Galbi: Remove the ribs from the marinade, discarding the marinade. Place the ribs on the preheated grill and cook until the meat is tender, slightly charred, and the outside is beautifully crusty. This typically takes 5 to 10 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the ribs and the intensity of the heat. (10-20 minutes)
